Probably because Kiyani promised to keep the Army in check and to prevent any military takeover despite the record breaking corruption and abuse of power by this Govt. Damn it is unfair to the guy who deserved to be COAS after timely retirement of Kiyani, it also sort of gives the impression as if the rest of the Generals are incompetent when compared to Kiyani.
not true but in PK it is about keeping your 'flanks' secure. by offering Kiyani 3-yr extension, the GoP(read Prez) felt he could concentrate on 'solidifying' his seat for the 5 year term and also work to re-elect the PPP govt for another 5. but the best laid plans can somehow go 'kaput'!!!
