PTI lawmaker says he was offered Rs400 million for constitutional amendment support
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) lawmaker Iqbal Afridi has alleged that he was offered Rs400 million to support proposed constitutional amendments.
In a video message on Tuesday, Afridi, a member of the National Assembly, claimed, "I was offered Rs400 million to back the constitutional amendments. They were even willing to offer Rs800 million or more—up to Rs1 billion. But I took an oath during the elections to always speak the truth, and I swore allegiance to Imran Khan."
Afridi stated that he rejected the offer, saying, "I dismiss their money and proposals. I am a soldier of Khan. I have supported Imran Khan’s ideology since 1997-98, standing by him through countless sacrifices for real change."
He further emphasised his loyalty to the former prime minister, stating, "During the regime change, I withstood oppression, never fled, stayed silent, or sold out.
Today, I still stand with Imran Khan and reject this offer. I will support whatever decision the party makes regarding constitutional amendments."
