The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) candidate for PS-88 Owais Muzaffar has said that his opponents are fleeing from competition out of fear of people’s power.
He said that on May 11, he will deliver the people of Thatta from the clutches of tyrants that have remained in power in the constituency in successive governments.
Addressing public rallies at Thatta, Sujawal and other places he said that people will vote PPP to power again and the party will play its role in the prosperity of the area. He assured the people that PPP will restart fresh water projects in the area and implement the projects that were ignored in the past.
He said that people of Thatta will not be intimidated by the powerful groups and they will cast their votes without fear. “PPP will clean sweep the constituency,” he said. People of Thatta and Sujawal had come to listen to his speeches in large numbers and they chanted Jeay Bhutto slogans. He promised that his party will not abandon its electorate.
The NA candidate Rameezuddin Memon and candidate for PS-86 Parveen Leghari were also present. Many of the community members also announced that they are joining PPP. When Owais reached Thatta his supporters showered rose petals on him. At many places he came out of his car and interacted with the people. He also visited houses of many workers.
Talking to reporters he said that Nawaz Sharif’s scheduled visit to Thatta today was actually a victory of the PPP because the election campaign of PPP workers here has terrified him. Nawaz Sharif will have to tell the people as to why the PPP-era Ketty Bunder power plant project was shelved. “Was that stopped just because it would change the fate of the whole of Sindh?” he asked. He said that because Benazir selected this place, an irreparable loss was inflicted to the people of Sindh. Nawaz will have to answer as to why injustice was done to the people of Sindh.

Mr Yes, U must vote for this great man. He did great things for himself and Zardari
I support Mr. Owais Muzaffar, a great man who will undoubtedly do great things for his constituency
Not only opposition, the whole country is afraid "if they come ever again"
Owais Muzaffar, has distributed thousands of Motorcycles and Rickshaws in his constituency, Pre-Poll Rigging at its best ! No Free and fair Elections ! Corrupt caretaker set-up
It is Suggested that keeping the constituencies the same, the election commission should ask the voters to vote on a ballot paper on election day on which only:
THE PARTY NAME, SYMBOL & FLAG
is printed and no name of the individual candidate of that constituency.
@Parvez: Tappi bhai, Tappi. The curse of Karachi
Owais Muzaffar.................who ??
fools of Pakistan look at the jeeps. one jeep costs somewhere around PKR 15,000,000 and in five years nothing was spent on the fools who still supports the culprit system of Pakistan. speak for a change. its now or never
The reality is against his this statement and reality is PPP is afraid of its opponents because every 3rd person is saying to vote PML-N and PTI as has been shown and seen in the elections' surveys' programs on private news channels.....
