Nawaz Sharif addressed participants via video link from London

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - The much-hyped 11-party Opposition All Parties Conference (APC) hosted by Chairman of Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Bilawal Bhutto Zardari is underway in federal capital.

Nawaz Sharif addressed participants via video link from London, marking his political comeback after more than a year.

Nawaz Sharif said that Pakistan has become a laboratory for “experiments" and every child knows that no prime minister has been allowed to complete five years in power.

It’s not even taken into account that the democratic structure of the country is demolished due to such tactics and the public loses faith in the system, he added.

PML-N supremo said that democracy is in danger and he agrees with Maulana Fazlur Rehman that we need to make this conference purposeful or people will be disappointed. "If we don’t do it [take a step] today, when will we?" he asked.

Speaking about the 2018 elections, he said the the primary reason for the current problems were those people who "hijacked the people’s mandate by putting inexperienced people in power".

He also repeated opposition’s allegation that the National Accountability Bureau (NAB), with the connivance of PTI, was carrying out only "selective accountability".
