Leader of the opposition Shahbaz Sharif recently returned to Pakistan amid the Coronavirus pandemic. Some quarters are already hailing him as the tech-savvy messiah we need in a time of crisis. But when is too much considered too much? Let’s find out.
Just when you think people are ready to be responsible citizens and take precautions pertaining to the Coronavirus pandemic, they let you down. This time people are suggesting placing the Leader of the Opposition in charge of the fight against COVID-19.
Shahbaz Sharif in the line of fire?
It all started when Shahbaz offered himself as the head of a government task force to fight the Coronavirus pandemic.
Why did people come to this conclusion? Because they felt the government is not doing enough with its lockdown and being a killjoy in ‘Shadi season‘. Meanwhile, the ‘younger’ Sharif is preaching precautions with his woke tweets.
Lest the world should forget: Over 80,00000 people in Indian occupied Kashmir still remain under an oppressive & crippling lockdown due to MODIVIRUS since 5th Aug 2019. Despite its available treatment, the world at large turned a blind eye and didn't feel their pain and anguish!!

Our doctors, nurses, and medical staff are front-line warriors, waging this war for the physical well-being of all of us. They are our heroes & deserve utmost respect and cooperation. Govt MUST facilitate/equip them to ensure their safety, as COVID-19 cases increase sharply!

Shahbaz Sharif’s return amid the Coronavirus pandemic is even being compared to the return of a Messiah in a crisis. It’s being argued that he’s is the tech-savvy, armed with research so we ought to trust him amid a global pandemic?
Is it safe to say that he is prepared? That he is someone who does not only have his gaming life in order but also uses an ASUS gaming laptop for Netflix?
Yet some suggest we take this man’s word for it when it comes to fighting COVID-19.

Alright even if you can forgive such a gaming crime, what about coming in from an infected hot spot and not wearing a mask in public?

At least this netizen put it straight.
Murad Ali Shah created chaos while being the province with most #COVIDー19 patients.
And now Shehbaz Sharif returns to Pakistan to create panic, chaos in Punjab.
In times of Global Pandemic these petty politician are playing with people life.

During this pandemic, we should remember one thing. Remember the person who’s been participating in misinformation on social media and having a ball at weddings. Yeah, that’s the person you should start holding accountable, even if its you.
