The merger of MQM-Pakistan and Pak Sarzameen Party (PSP) was a major political development this week in Pakistan. However, the merger lasted for 24 hours only and hence, people were able to see the funny side of things and decided to share their opinion on twitter.
Here is what they had to say following the merger.
Well, some believed it was all a drama!
Pakistan has an awesome drama industry, just have a look at the recent drama #FarooqSattar & Mustafa Kamal.
So much talent! pic.twitter.com/vB02nJ4IGv— – (@Parniyan_zzz) November 8, 2017
Noman Ijaz is a legendary actor but still can’t beat Farooq Sattar and Mustafa Kamal.

And this guy here felt it was all a prank!

Because you don’t talk about Farooq Sattar without mentioning Thakhur!
Watching the Press Conference….

A marriage of inconvenience would have made sense but forced marriage?
MQM PSP merger will set a world record of world's largest arranged/forced marriage.#farooqsattar

This person too believed it was a marriage of sorts!

Clearly, this guy doubted Farooq Sattar’s claim.
#FarooqSattar has said that he has 45 years political experience.
Does it mean, he was in politics since his pamper days?

Self explanatory for anyone who uses twitter.

Following cancellation of merger plans this is how people responded to the development.
This person felt it was a case of a failed marriage!
Married yesterday, got divorced today, I wonder if anyone has seen a short-lived marriage like this before even a political one.#FarooqSattar

People obviously had things to say following the Land Cruiser controversy!
Reason of break up
"Land Cruiser" 💔😭#FarooqSattar pic.twitter.com/mEAryvxeRh— ♡Reh♡ (@AmShah656) November 9, 2017

It is complicated for sure!
The new name for MQM-P and PSP alliance should be Mutahidda 'Qaumplicated' Movement.#MQMPakistan

The entire thing did sound like a joke to some, definitely!

So is the merger still on? To be fair the whole episode has been confusing, for sure!

The meme pretty much sums up the situation following MQM-P’s press conference.
