– Nawaz Sharif 'took a lot of time’ to return home: Murad Ali Shah –

Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) senior Murad Ali Shah said on Tuesday that Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif "took a lot of time” to return home.

Speaking to the media in Jamshoro, the former Sindh chief minister said: “There were many alliances formed against the PPP, but each of them failed. All the alliances against the PPP had been bludgeoned.”

He expressed optimism about “clinching victory” in the upcoming general elections. “The PPP will win the elections on February 8 by breaking all the records.”

Shah took a dig at the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder, saying, “The PTI founder had left the country on the verge of default. Sindh had also had to face injustices during his tenure.”
