Pakistani politician Farooq Sattar has entered the world of influencers and nobody saw it coming. But then again, this is a guy who once had the toughest job in Pakistan.
The MQM-P leader has become a social media sensation overnight and people are actually curious to find out what is happening.
To some extent, we are all aware of how social media influencers work. They create content, brands approach them to make more content and then they spread the word through their social media handles, typically Instagram and YouTube.
But what about Mr. Sattar? Let’s find out.
Farooq Sattar with a career change?

Twitter has all sorts of takes
People are taking the video as a lighthearted, refreshing joke and are trolling him for acting like a ‘salesman’. Here are some of the most hilarious reactions on Twitter. Have a look.
