In a significant development, PTI core committee member Akbar has resigned from his position, citing internal conflicts and alleged favoritism within the party. His resignation comes on the heels of Opposition Leader Omar Ayub\’s decision to step down as PTI secretary general, hinting at further changes in the party\’s organizational structure.
Akbar\’s resignation letter alleges that certain individuals have been allowed to meet party founder Imran Khan, who is currently incarcerated, while others, including himself, have been denied access. He also claims that party decisions are being made without his input and that the interests of a select few are being prioritized over the party\’s well-being.
Meanwhile, the PTI Parliamentary Party has expressed complete confidence in Omar Ayub and rejected his resignation. However, insiders reveal that a tug-of-war is ongoing within the party, with lawmakers openly discussing their concerns about the leadership\’s performance and future party cadres\’ representatives.
The infighting has sparked speculation about potential changes in the party\’s leadership, with Sheikh Waqas Akram from Jhang being considered as a possible replacement for Omar Ayub as PTI secretary general.
