Nawabzada Abdul Ghafoor Khan Hoti (1923–1998) was a former governor of the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (known as NWFP at the time) province of Pakistan. Belonging to Mardan, he was the son of Nawab Akbar Khan Hoti and father of Inspector General of KPK Police Nawabzada Muhammad Akbar Khan Hoti.[2] [1] [3]
He was one of the rare politicians who had said that he would resign from his office, if his son was proven guilty by a court in the United States. He later resigned as promised.[3]
