Asif Ali Zardari is renowned for being Benazir Bhutto’s husband, and some say, a corrupt politician. Now he is the key factor in Pakistani politics. After Benazir’s assassination he became co-chairman in the Pakistan People’s Party and his party gained Parliamentary elections. Thus he will decide who leads Pakistan next.
A few days ago he declared Makhdoom Amin Fahim the next Prime Minister in Pakistan. But now some confusion has arisen around Fahim, and it’s uncertain who will be the next PM of Pakistan. Some say Zardari himself want to become Prime Minister. But now he is not the Member of Parliament. So in meantime he selects another person for prime minister and after some month he became prime minister in Pakistan.
This could be a great mistake for Zardari. Before he was not involved in politics. So he needs to take his time. One the other hsnd, if he does not take power, people will respect him lot. If he follows Sonia Gandhi in India perhaps he can establish himself as a genuine leader. We will wait to see If he want to be a genuine leader or a power holder.
