A protest was held in Peshawar against the negative campaign on social media targeting former cricket captain Shahid Afridi.
A large number of tribal youths participated in the demonstration outside of the Peshawar Press Club, chanting slogans in support of the former star all-rounder of the national team.
The protesters expressed strong opposition to the negative campaign against national heroes on social media. They warned that Afridi’s supporters would be compelled to stage protests in every city if the smear campaign continued.
They emphasised that Afridi is a source of pride for the tribesmen and Pakistan.
The protesters vowed to prevent any conspiracy against him from succeeding and stressed the importance of recognising the achievements of national heroes.
