Rift in PTI: Marwat demands resignation of Shibli Faraz from party positions
Omar Ayub said that he tendered his resignation on June 22 to the party Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan that Shibli Faraz conveyed his message to the PTI founder in jail.
ISLAMABAD: Disgruntled Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Sher Afzal Marwat demanding Shibli Faraz’s resignation from party positions claimed that it is essential to rid the party of the “qabza mafia.
Marwat’s demand came after Omar Ayub resigned from the position of Secretary General of PTI, saying there would be more changes in the party’s organizational structure.
Reacting to Omar Ayub’s resignation Afzal Marwat took to X (Formerly Twitter) saying, “I welcome the wise decision of Omar Ayub Khan to step down as Secretary General. A few other people holding important positions in the party should also follow suit.”
Speaking about the party leadership, Marwat said that there are many instances where the leadership failed, adding that there are many examples of that including the party’s “bat” symbol and reserved seats issues.
Lashing out at the PTI current leadership he said, “The party failed to accomplish a single task. (Imran) Khan is in jail and recovery of mandate is still far away. Our women and leaders are locked up in jails and we have failed to mobilize the masses for a great movement.”

“I demand the resignation of Shibli Faraz from both the party office and the Leader of the Opposition in the Senate, only then will the party be free from the clutches of the Qabza mafia” he added.
