Methinks speech's hypocritical words will not ready and as usual the nation knows it very well that what Nawaz Sharif will say? and who cares either addresses or not?
Be sure he will not give solution of any problem just comments on problems. He has excuse for every problems.
People have to wait 2 days more to listen to their problems. Mian nawaaz shareef saheb country is drowning further by 2 days
Delayed beccause Imran Khan has left for the UK .. whats nawaz sharifs fault??
@ Riaz Ahmad: Although Allah used to send Prophets in case a nation would become corrupt, immoral and evil in the past, looks like for muslims His patience has run out long time ago and He has no clue to bring muslims back on track.
@asim: When a nation becomes corrupt, immoral and evil, Allah imposes equally corrupt, immoral and evil rulers on them.
No doubt, Mian Nawaz Sharif is a good Prime Minister. If he gives the nation a time frame for the end of energy crisis and this crisis really comes to an end ,our so-called nation will start telling that our electricity bills are beyond our financial capacity and will blame the government instead of confessing their own fault of mercilessly consuming the electricity all the time and may also say that this bill hike is just because of 'GANJAAS' .This is our worth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We can see National Unity at no place. Really quite true and shocking as well . Shame on us !!!
Nawaz is the main culprit for kargil war we expect punishment for that.

Thats right but you must also read verses that describe punishment for wrong allegations.
@Fawad Ali Shah: Nawaz Sharif is suffering from early stages of dementia. My guess is that soon he would become a father figure for the party after Shahbaz Sharif, hamza shahbaz, and maryam nawaz strengthen their grip on the party.
I am confident he is the only one who can solve our problems.
The aim of the speech is to take the nation into confidence and address several problems, including the energy crisis.
Finally you got some time for the pakistani people. Sir, pakistanis already know the problems, could you please focus on the solutions instead.

Announce and surrender all your wealth in the state coffin else we can not consider you loyal
