As you are reading this article, by now Nawaz Sharif has likely arrived in Pakistan. However, we are not here to discuss his return or the practical implications of it; instead, we want to inform you about the ongoing battle on the X platform (formerly Twitter) between the social media teams of PTI (Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf) and PMLN (Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz).
Until yesterday, PMLN’s social media teams had been dominating this virtual battlefield. However, on the day of Nawaz Sharif’s anticipated arrival, a significant twist occurred. The top trending hashtag on X is now #ΪΩΨ±_ΩΎΪΎΨ±_Ψ’Ψ±ΫΨ§_ΫΫ, which translates to “thief is coming again.” This development signifies a substantial setback for any social media team, especially when maintaining the top trending position was of utmost importance.
This change represents a victory for the PTI social media team, even though they are not operating at full strength. To clarify, this doesn’t mean that PMLN’s trends have disappeared from the platform. However, the battle for online influence is relentless, and today, it seems that PTI’s social media team has managed to capture the top position, despite not being fully operational.
