ISLAMABAD – President Mamnoon Hussain swore in Imran Khan as Pakistan’snewest Prime Minister.
Whilst the oath taking ceremony was long awaited and exciting, it seemed asthough even a confident and charming personality like Imran Khan alsoseemed a bit rattled by the overwhelming experience. It seemed as thoughwhilst repeating the words of his oath, nervousness took over the new PrimeMinister as Imran Khan committed a few grave mistakes that were caught onlive television.
When President Mamnoon Hussain said the words “Roz-e-Qiyaamat”, Imran Khandidn’t hear the exact phrase and called out the words wrongly terming themas “Roz-e-Qiyaadat” hence completely changing the meaning of the sentence.Once corrected by the President, Imran Khan realized his mistake, smiledsubtly and continued with his oath taking.
Throughout the oath taking nervous jitters were very much evident onImran’s face. Considering the fact that Imran was finally realizing hisdream after a long struggle of 22 years, one can give him the margin.
