Imran Khan is set to become the Prime Minister of Pakistan following the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf’s (PTI) success in the general elections. The celebrations for the expected result begun well before the results. PTI requires a total of 137 seats for simple majority. His prty was up against the PML-N headed by ex-PM, Nawaz Sharif’s brother – Shahbaz Sharif and Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, leader of the PPP.
The ex-cricketer has overcome numerous challenges such as facing poll-rigging allegations and allegedly having undue advantages from the military.
His former team mate, Waqar Younis, was one of the first people to congratulate Khan on his historic achievement.
