Karachi Mayor Barrister Murtaza Wahab on Friday inaugurated a jump swing with the name of Jumbo Jump at the Safari Park. Speaking to the media, he said the promises made to the people of Karachi for a better and developed city were being consistently fulfilled. He claimed that efforts were under way to ensure development in every area of the city, benefiting its residents.
He criticised the negative propaganda about the city, which he claimed has no basis in reality. He said the Jumbo Jump recreational facility at the Safari Park had been provided at very affordable rates to the public. Wahab encouraged the residents of Karachi who invested outside the city to consider investing money in useful projects within their city.

Karachi Deputy Mayor Salman Abdullah Murad and other officials of the Karachi Metropolitan Corporation (KMC) were also present on the occasion, including the mayor's spokesperson for political affairs Karamullah Waqasi, deputy parliamentary leader of the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) in the KMC City Council Dil Muhammad and Senior Director of Recreation Iqbal Nawaz.
