C.M.Sarwar | 13 years ago | Reply Removal of the current Chairman,NAB was not the wish of the king.It was the directive of the CJ of the Supereme Court of Pakistan.The chairman was trying to protect the NRO king Zardari from accountability after the sad demise of NRO both in the Parliment and in the Supereme Court. Somebody asked Late Ahmad Faraz about his evaluation of Pakistan after more than three decades of its existence.He said that when Pakistan was born Jinnah was the President of Muslim League.Now it is headed by Ch.Shujat and you can very well imagine how miserable this nation is.Could anyone ever imagine Zardari being the President of Islamic Republic of Pakistan?And Look at Gilani,the prime minister.Is he not trying to run the country like a king? Thank God,we hve got the present CJ and this Supreme Court.
