He criticised Khattak’s ambitions to reclaim the chief minister position, questioning his achievements during his previous tenure of five years. He emphasised that a fair election would end Khattak’s party PTI-Parliamentarians, similar to the PTI.

“On February 8, PML-N leader Mian Nawaz Sharif is expected to become prime minister for the fourth time, initiating a new era of progress,” he said during election gatherings in Nowshera district.

Several members from PTI-P, including Inam Jan Ali, Nazim Gul Nawab, Nazim Akbar Ali, former nazim Naeem-ul-Haq, and Zulfiqar, joined PMLN. In Nowshera cantonment, Ilyas Paracha, Khalid Khan from Amangarh, Surya Khel’s Khalid Khan, and former nazim Haji Qasim also announced joining the PMLN.

Ikhtiyar Wali urged the people to support Nawaz Sharif on February 8 for what he called Pakistan’s economic strength.

Khan remarked on Pervez Khattak’s aspirations, stating that his chief ministerial dreams lack

substance, when his past term’s performance is considered.
