LAHORE: Pakistan Peoples Party co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari on Monday said that the party will participate in the 2018 elections fully prepared and the workers will start being active from today.
Addressing a delegation from Sargodha division at Bilawal House Lahore, the former president said that under the current government, problems of the people have multiplied and the nation is troubled due to inflation, lack of jobs and economic mismanagement.
Zardari said that the PPP believes in the nation as it has always considered people being the source of power. “This is why, whenever the party comes into power, the first priority is to solve the problems of the people,” he said.

He vowed the PPP will continue to provide jobs and will create job opportunities for youngsters once again. He said that the PPP’s manifesto is justice for the downtrodden masses.
