Despite many weaknesses Imran Khan is the only politician who can pull Pakistan out of the crisis, says his close associate Umar Khan Yousafzai in an interview with The News.
Umar Khan Yousafzai (66), born in village Mazo Garhi (Mardan), brought up in Nowshera and residing in London since 1970, is amongst those who have devoted their lives for the welfare of the miserable people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. He provided shelter to 92 families hit by the devastating floods of 2009 without seeking recognition or publicity.The most important trait of Imrans personality is that he has got a revolutionary mind and he is a man of action, not words.
When asked what inspired Imran Khan to join politics, Umar Khan said, Mian Nawaz Sharif; the very thought of a blacksmith running a small garage becoming an industrialist would always trouble him.To the query why Imran Khan looks confused all the time, Umar khan said that this is his only weakness; he is a very impatient person. I have always advised him to act responsibly.
In one of the books authored by Imran Khan he had favoured the Jirga system in the tribal area about which Umar Khan said that the Jirga system is good but to provide justice to the people in the true sense the central government must interfere in the cases brought before the elders of the tribes.When asked about London tabloid reports, which claimed that Imran Khan was the father of Sita Whites daughter, Tyrian, Umar Khan said it was really a scandal and the director of the drama was none other than Nawaz Sharif. Imran Khan is a shy person and even when he was quite young he avoided the company of females, he said.
Once in a party when Imran was surrounded by female fans he rushed from the gathering and said to me Women create problem, he recalled.Umar Khan urged the poor and those who really want a prosperous Pakistan to vote for Imran. I have been associated with Imran for a long time. I have always found him a passionate player and it was because of that passion that he won the World Cup. The other proof is Shaukat Khanam Memorial Hospital, which also shows his great affection and attachment with her mother. He hoped that Imran Khan would bring about such a change that the country would become prosperous within a few years.
He claimed that if Imran Khan came to power he would follow merit-based policy and would put an end to load shedding and corruption.While referring to Imrans rally on December 25,2011 at Mazar-e-Quaid, he said the very first thing Imran Khan did when he came to the stage was to express his gratitude to a young man who had sold his mobile set to reach Karachi to attend his rally. This shows how much he cares for the deprived people.
