RAWALPINDI: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder, Imran Khan on Monday said that his potential appointment as Chancellor of Oxford University would be a matter of pride for Pakistan. However, he stated that even if he doesn’t become Chancellor, it wouldn’t be an issue.
During a conversation with journalists at Adiala Jail, Imran expressed his willingness to engage in dialogue, stating that discussions will take place only with those who make the decisions.
Imran Khan remarked that May 9 is “insurance policy” for the incumbent regime. He further claimed that if May 9 is disregarded, the government and its politics will come to an end.
He suggested forming a judicial commission to investigate the events of May 9.
“Whenever the topic of negotiations arises, they start making noise about May 9. We are always ready for talks. We will speak with those who make the decisions,” he added.
He highlighted his achievements in cricket and philanthropy, noting that he is Pakistan’s biggest philanthropist, having established two hospitals and two universities, with a third university currently under construction.
Khan also claimed there were two upcoming entries in the Guinness Book of World Records.
The first, he claimed, would be for the “U-turn” where the slogan “Respect the Vote” was replaced with “Respect the Boot.”
Imran Khan, when in power himself was described a “master of U-turn” which he had claimed was a “hallmark of great leadership.”
He criticised Nawaz Sharif for his previous stance against the military and martial law, pointing out that figures like Khawaja Asif and Ahsan Iqbal have also made harsh remarks against the military.
He stated that the second Guinness entry would be for Nawaz Sharif, who, despite allegedly aligning with all four umpires, still lost the match.
Khan claimed that the opposition was not even allowed to participate in the match.
He accused Nawaz Sharif of benefiting from 74,000 additional votes and suggested that whenever there are signs of negotiations, the government brings up May 9 as a diversion and demands an apology for it.
