Netizens amused by the U-Turn inauguration
Soon after the Pakistani journalist posted the news on Twitter, netizens couldn't hold themselves from commenting their amusement over this development. Netizens roasted those who were a part of the inauguration or attended the event.
Imran Khan's Nahakki embarrassment
Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan on Monday 'inaugurated' the Nahakki tunnel in Mohmand agency three years after it had already been inaugurated.
Pakistan's Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Bajwa had inaugurated the Nahakki tunnel back in September 2017, after he visited and interacted with the locals of the area, lauding the efforts of the Pakistan Army in constructing the strategic tunnel. The ceremony was attended by Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Governor Iqbal Zafar Jhagra, Corps Commander Peshawar Lt General Nazir Ahmad Butt, and local officials. The 751-metre Nahakki pass, built at a cost of Rs 1.1 billion was then opened for public use and all kinds of traffic.
