The PPP has nominated Barrister Murtaza Wahab as a candidate for Karachi mayor, along with Salman Abdullah Murad as his deputy of the metropolitan.“I have full faith that Mr. Shoro & Mr. Wahab will be the first but not the last PPP mayors of our two great cities,” PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari tweeted on Monday.
“A special thank you to Hyderabad & Karachi for trusting us for the first time.”He said this after PPP Sindh President Nisar Khuhro announced the names of party candidates for local government chairmen and vice chairmen elections in Sindh in a press conference at the Bilawal House in Karachi. He was flanked by party leaders.
Although the Sindh-ruling party could not secure a single majority after the LG elections, it claims that the PTI UC chairmen will not vote for the Jamaat-e-Islami candidate for the Karachi mayor seat. bBilawal congratulated all PPP nominees.
“The people have expressed faith in the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP). Now let’s go win the next round and get going with what we do best, serving the people,” he said. Wahab, who has served as the Karachi administrator in the past, thanked the party leadership for nominating him for the coveted slot.
