Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani on Saturday said he was ready to face the outcome of the “memogate” inquiry, saying he being the chief executive was responsible for everything related to the government.
Chairing a meeting of Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Punjab leaders at the Punjab Governor’s House, Gilani categorically denied President Asif Ali Zardari’s involvement in the scandal, adding that conspiracies were being hatched to get him involved in it. The PM said that he would be the first to go if any “sacrifice” was required. Gilani said he had summoned Husain Haqqani and asked him to resign over the alleged memo scandal and appointed Sherry Rehman as the new ambassador to the US. “The allegations of the opposition are baseless and groundless,” he asserted. Expressing displeasure with Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif’s petition regarding the “memogate” scandal, he said there was no justification for this since an enquiry was already being conducted by a parliamentary committee. Criticising Nawaz, he said it “makes no difference who is at the helm of affairs; but parliament should continue whether we stay in power or not”. He said a commission had been formed to investigate the issue and he had himself called Senator Raza Rabbani to head the investigation.
Gilani said parliament was the supreme organisation and its premier committee was investigating the issue, adding that those hatching conspiracies should learn politics. The prime minister also took parliamentarians into confidence over the stance of the government on the Mohmand incident. Earlier, the meeting discussed the initiation of a ‘Wafaq Bachao’ movement.

  1. The Prime Minister is right. He is Chief Executive. In the unlikely event of anything being proved against ex-Ambassador, the Prime Minister in a way can be held responsible. The Punjab based PML-N should stop targetting political leaders from smaller provinces. Unfortunately, Pakistan has suffered immensely since 1947 due to the behaviour of self-styled thakedars of Pakistan from Punjab.

  2. HAHAH. he is the cheapest and most stupid PM i have every seen. he want to give up himself for a guy who is fu$^$^%& Pakistan. i dont undertand the reason why when we ll bring this change. PPP and PML and MQM. when do we throw them out????
