After much drama over the resignation and election of the provincial chief executive, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI)-backed lawmaker Sohail Khan Afridi has finally been sworn in as the chief minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Governor Kundi, who had earlier rejected Gandapur’s resignation, was directed by the Peshawar High Court to administer the oath to the chief minister-elect at 4pm today. The court ruled that if he failed to do so, KP Assembly Speaker Babar Saleem Swati would perform the duty instead.
