Nawaz Sharif Names Brother Shehbaz as PML-N's PM Candidate for 2018 Election Wednesday Dec 20,2017

Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz President Nawaz Sharif has nominated his brother and Punjab Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif as the candidate for the Prime Minister's office in the next parliamentary elections.

Nawaz Sharif announced the decision after a Wednesday night meeting of PML-N leaders at his residence

The former Prime Minister, ousted from office over corruption charges, lauded Shehbaz Sharif's vision as Chief Minister. "Shehbaz Sharif has never disappointed me," he said.

The announcement marks a truce between the two brothers, whose relationship had come under strain in recent times.

Nawaz Sharif's decision not to nominate Shehbaz Sharif as the party head after his disqualification was seen by some as an outcome of the rift and distrust between the two.
