Shahbaz Sharif further claimed the army chief has said that whenever Nawaz Sharif was asked to do anything for the Pakistan Army, it was done.
“And then he (Gen Bajwa) said the next thing that whenever I (Gen Bajwa) said to him (Nawaz Sharif) that we need this for the armed forces he never refused (to grant the request).” The Leader of the Opposition also said that secrets will soon be unveiled about how Nawaz Sharif whole-heartedly served the country.
