Partly Facetious: Mujhay kyon nikala

"As the Americans say very aptly: same-o same-o!"
Published June 6, 2018

"As the Americans say very aptly: same-o same-o!"
"How can you say that, it's so different today from 31 May 2018, the last day of the five year tenure of the PML-N - there was no load shedding on the 31 May but now there is load shedding of 10 to 15 hours..."
"I disagree."
"How can you possibly disagree?"
"For two reasons, first you must have heard reports that indicate that there were loads of appointments in key positions just before the demise of the PML-N government - a practice followed by all parties that have formed a government in the centre."
"Why? Why didn't they take these decisions earlier so that no one would accuse them of placing their loyalists in key positions? I mean they were confronted by precisely these charges in 2013 so why didn't they take appropriate measures well in time so that this charge of pre-poll rigging is not levied against them."
"Because my silly friend what is a key position during an election is not a key position during the rest of the time."
"Right, besides let's not forget MKN is notorious for taking the same decision again and again just to prove that his decision was right the first time around."
"Well that hasn't happened has it, I mean the same decisions are landing him in the same hot waters as before...and that what I meant when I said same-o same-o. But anyway a minor correction: the initial are MNS, Mian Nawaz Sharif and not MKN."
"He is more widely known as MKN - Mujhay Kyon Nikala."
"Don't be facetious, anyway, secondly I disagree with you because the implication that load shedding is due to the caretaker prime minister's poor governance does not hold water, I mean he has not taken any decisions with respect to the energy sector, you know like releasing unbudgeted funds for the sector to ease the liquidity issues and enable the Pakistan State Oil to import furnace oil for the inefficiently run state owned generation companies and the fault for not degrading the Gencos rests with..."
"With that dratted lisping night watchman prime minister who messed up even while following orders - I mean really!"
"You reckon ten month long Prime Minister is a night watchman?"
"If you are in the PML-N and your last name is not Nawaz Sharif yes."
"MKN has been disqualified from standing for elections for life so your thesis is extremely flawed, I give you an F."
"You are so shallow, why do you think Maryam has put the N before the Sharif."
"But she is in serious legal trouble..."
"But not yet disqualified, and the legal strategy is to drag the case till beyond the elections so that she wins and then when and if she is disqualified or jailed they can make a better case of MKN."
"Mujhay kyon nikala?"
