I know how to deal with the Sharifs: Zardari

President Asif Ali Zardari continued his onslaught against the Sharif brothers for the second consecutive day in their hometown and bastion of political power. Speaking to Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) workers in Lahore on Friday, Zardari said he was aware of the Sharif brothers’ might, and that he knows how to deal with it. “I will visit all district headquarters prior to the elections; the political rulers of Punjab will know when we will come to power (in Punjab),” said Zardari. Political analysts say Zardari has set the tone for the upcoming elections and gave a message to PPP workers that they should get ready for the elections and should not worry about the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N). “The People’s Party is going to give a tough time to the Sharif brothers in Central Punjab,” Zardari said. “Forcing Musharraf out of the country was my first target. I had let the line loose on the Sharifs only to be able to force Musharraf out,” he said. “The country’s current political scenario requires that political parties stand united. But the Sharifs will shake hands with no one,” he added. On Thursday, the PPP co-chairman had lashed out at Nawaz Sharif and Shahbaz Sharif during a speech at the Governor’s House.
