Nawaz Sharif has to be appreciated that he has exposed the classes that were once against him and fought against his class. Today, they fight to defend the Nawaz Sharif family’s financial corruption.
There was a time when so-called revolutionaries were influenced by the words of Pashtuns, Baloch and Sindhi nationalists and regarded them as the representative of their ideal world. There used to be a pin drop silence, when Mahmood Khan Achakzai use to stand in the National Assembly. Complete silence from Parliament to the Press Gallery. Now, as he stands to speak, the Parliament and the Press Gallery both becomes empty. He has lost his creditability ever since he has befriended Nawaz Sharif.
When Baloch politician Muhammad Malik formed the government in Balochistan, it was said that this was the biggest revolution and the credit goes to Nawaz Sharif. The result was the endless corruption by the coalition government. The Baloch nationalists who came out to improve their nation’s condition had improved their own financial conditions and moved to Dubai. The Baloch nation is waiting for another Messiah. The same thing happened in Sindh. Sindhi nationalists once use to say that there is no leader as great as Nawaz Sharif and now by associating with him, they would bring revolution in Sindh. I was of the view, that this affiliation with Nawaz Sharif was in fact for the reason that no new province is formed in the Northern Punjab and the votes of Punjabi settlers in Sindh may fall in these Sindhi nationalists’ favour. They wanted to strengthen the hands of Nawaz Sharif because they thought that if Northern Punjab becomes a new province, then a similar demand might arise in the Sindh as well. So, Nawaz Sharif suits them who will not allow the province of 12 crore population to be divided into new provinces. I knew that once Nawaz Sharif had won the election, he will not even recognise them. My prediction came true as I heard the same Sindhi nationalist, publicly speaking against Nawaz Sharif. The same thing happened with Mumtaz Bhutto.
Nationalists could not understand that you only could protect yourself as long as you were out of power. Once you taste the power, then the reality comes out. The nationalists had a creditability and reputation as long as they were out of power. As soon as Nawaz Sharif gave them power, gave ministries, they too rode billions of rupees’ vehicles, so they realized that they have been idiots so far. In the era of these nationalists, billions of rupees cash was recovered from the house of the secretary treasury in Balochistan and many stories came out which nationalist angels were involved in this game of wealth making. This is what happened to the ANP nationalists as well. In ANP’s government, corruption scandals erupted in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. It is surprising that those who received a public mandate to change the conditions of the Pashtuns, they made their fortunes in Dubai and once again sold the Pashtun nation.
If I were to ask, I would say that Nawaz Sharif’s greatest achievement is to put Pakistan’s literate and liberal class in defending the corruption. Now I have started to feel sorry for these reckless Pakistani liberals. Against the plunder of Nawaz Sharif, they became liberal. Now they have become his spokesmen. Nawaz Sharif clearly knows how to make people corrupt. Everyone has a price. Some people do not go for money, so buy them with little importance. Appreciate while inviting them for tea, mentioning them at the ceremony and they will be all yours. These journalists, anchors and columnists will then give you all suggestions in the world. Even if they don’t know anything, they will still give you the golden principles of running a government. Even if they have been writing columns against Nawaz Sharif for the past four years, been speaking on TV, but if they are invited to give a guidance, then they will forget about their intellectual and ideals and they will be there to give you the advice.
These hired liberals, anchors and columnists will never dare to ask to people that whether you are ashamed to robbing the nation. You were handed over the country, people trusted you and in return you robbed the same people and made fortunes in five continents of this world. Instead of feeling ashamed, you ask us to tell you how to save yourself and expect us to speak in your favour on TV, linking your corruption to the survival of democracy?
Have any liberal or right-wing columnists and intellectuals ever dared to say to Nawaz Sharif, or his daughter, who called them for advice, that they had damaged the nation’s confidence and broke their trust?
Well, Panama has proved one thing that education and awareness in Pakistan cannot make any impact on you. Whether you have been living in London, you have been studying in the top universities of the world or you have all the knowledge of the world, still you are only going to defend the corruption of Nawaz Sharif.
Well, it would be surprising to see the background of all of them. Most are representatives of foreign-funded NGOs or they are running a house with external funding or their organizations are taking big advertisements. These are the people who had to work for this change in this society. That change is nowhere to be seen. Nowadays, they are all lecturing us on the virtues of corruption. When the awareness among the people started to rise, so all of them became worried and they started telling the whole nation that this is what happens in democracy. It takes centuries to make things right. However, the effort these liberals are putting to convince the nation, if they had used the same effort to convince Nawaz Sharif, that have mercy on the country. Told him that he has made a lot of wealth, destroyed the institutions of this country, corrupted everyone, left no institution that can do its job, have placed such people everywhere who have crippled the country. Well, things may have been better today. You will not hear from these hired mouth pieces about the failure of the institutions which are destroyed by Nawaz Sharif. They will only say that Nawaz Sharif is strengthening the weakened democratic system.
Whenever this nation begins to try to get out of slavery, these ponies and the rented liberals start scaring them.
Although Nawaz Sharif has been exposed, but he has made sure that the liberals and intellectuals available on the go have also been publicly exposed.
Nawaz Sharif deserves an appreciation!
