KARACHI: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Imran Ismail will take oath as 33rd  Governor of Sindh Today.

As per details, The oath-taking ceremony will be held at the Governor House in Karachi where Chief Justice Sindh High Court Ahmed Ali M Shaikh will administer the oath . Earlier on August 24, a notification in this regard was issued.

Shortly after Imran Ismail was notified as Sindh Governor, he thanked Imran Khan for reposing trust in him. Imran Ismail also thanked PTI and party workers.

Ismail said, “I will play a role of bridge between centre and the province as progress and prosperity of Sindh is my top priority.”

He went on to say people of Sindh will find him among themselves. “I want to take all parties in the province along,” he said.

PTI Chairman and Prime Minister Imran Khan has nominated Imran Ismail as the next Governor of Sindh.

Ismail was elected a member of the Sindh Assembly in last month’s general elections from the constituency PS-111 in District South of Karachi. He also took the oath of office as MPA in the first-ever session of the new house of the Sindh Assembly held on August 13.

Meanwhile, citizens took to social media and commented on the academic qualification of the nominated governor, saying that his educational qualification does not match with the stature of the coveted constitutional position in the province.

The governor being the chancellor/patron of all the public sector universities/degree-awarding institutes in Sindh should at least be a graduate, added critics.
