MPA Sohail Afridi likely next KP chief minister, say sources
ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has decided to remove Ali Amin Gandapur as the chief minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), sources told Geo News on Wednesday.
The sources within the PTI said that the party leadership is likely to nominate MPA Sohail Afridi as the KP chief minister.
Meanwhile, PTI leaders have yet to confirm or deny the development.
Meanwhile, PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Khan denied having any knowledge about the decision.
“I have no information about Chief Minister Ali Amin’s removal,” he said, while speaking to Geo News.
The development comes amid reports of growing internal rifts within the party. Gandapur had earlier accused Aleema Khan, sister of PTI founder Imran Khan, of working with agencies, while Aleema had levelled counter-allegations against him.
Khan himself has reportedly expressed reservations over provincial governance and the handling of internal party affairs by the current KP administration, further fuelling speculation about an impending reshuffle.
