Shahbaz Sharif, the newly appointed prime minister of Pakistan, has a knack for making blunders in his speeches and becoming a laughing stock on social media. His latest gaffe was to thank everyone for choosing him as the opposition leader, right after he was sworn in as the head of the government. This left many people wondering if he was confused, delusional, or just plain dumb.
Will there ever be a day when Shahbaz Sharif delivers a flawless speech without any slip-ups or faux pas? Will he ever be able to speak with confidence and clarity, without fumbling over his words or saying something ridiculous? Will he ever be able to avoid being a meme material for the netizens who eagerly await his next blooper? The chances are slim, as Shahbaz Sharif seems to have a chronic case of foot-in-mouth disease, which makes him say the most inappropriate and absurd things at the most inappropriate and absurd times.
Perhaps Shahbaz Sharif should take some lessons from his brother, Nawaz Sharif, who was known for his eloquence and charisma as a leader. Or maybe he should hire a speechwriter and a teleprompter to help him craft and deliver his speeches. Or better yet, maybe he should just keep quiet and let his actions speak for him. Because as the saying goes, silence is golden, and in Shahbaz Sharif’s case, it might be the only way to save his reputation and dignity.
