As directed by the Peshawar High Court (PHC), Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Governor Faisal Karim Kundi on Wednesday administered the oath to Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf (PTI) member of the provincial assembly Sohail Afridi as the chief minister.

A number of PTI activists and leaders had thronged the governor's house for the ceremony and changed slogans, projecting their cause. Most of them were recording the ceremony on their mobile phones. All of them were highly charged.

Afridi also held up a portrait of jailed PTI founder and former Prime Minister Imran Khan during the event at the ceremony.

Kundi had specially flown to Peshawar from Karachi to administer the oath after the PHC issued the direction.

Afridi was elected the new KP chief executive on Monday during an assembly session marred by the opposition’s walkout and amid the prevailing uncertainty regarding the resignation of outgoing Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur.
