April 21, 2022 01:09 AM
Former prime minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan Wednesday said the army is more important than him for this country.
Addressing the Twitter Space for the first time Imran clarified that his political party has never talked against the armed forces but strengthened them.
“Army is more important for this country than Imran Khan.”
He asked his followers never to talk against the army. He said if it was not for the army, the country may have been divided into three parts.
He said enemies always make an attack the army and the former governments were used to attacking the army after their downfall.
Khan's address on the Twitter Space also proved to be a record as claimed by the Twitteratis and organisers.

He said that he has led a political struggle against the mafia for 26 years. “In Pakistan, two families used to rule here. It is crucial to change the system to bring real change. When I started efforts to bring a systematic change, the corrupt mafia including the sugar mafia has gathered against me.”
“I was aware of their unity and now, these people are imposed on the country who were involved in corruption. A criminal gang has been imposed on this country.”
While sharing his experiences, Imran Khan admitted that he faced blackmailing from the coalition parties during his tenure.
“Our coalition government was run after compromises. I want to appeal with the nation to elect us with a two-third majority in the parliament to form a strong government in the Centre.”
He also admitted that party tickets had been awarded to the wrong candidates in the elections. However, the same mistakes will never be repeated in the future after experiencing blackmailing and party violations.
“The current scenario is very different as the nation has sensed the foreign conspiracy for the first time in the country that led to a regime change.” The former premier was of the view that the foreign conspirators would never win to launch a successful plot against a regime until they are aided by internal elements like Mir Jafar.
“The most corrupt people have become part of the cabinet. Half of them are on bail. They are now blaming the PTI for increasing the troubles despite our political party leaving the power at a time when the country has the highest rate of exports and remittances.”
The PTI chairman announced leading a strong election campaign in the rural parts of Sindh. He said that the Zardari mafia has made the people of Sindh its slaves and ruling over them.
