In the complex web of Pakistani politics, Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari stands out as a formidable force. He skillfully weaves the legendary tradition of his family into his audacious and optimistic plan for a Pakistan that is genuinely progressive and democratic.
The Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) is fervently attempting to uphold the tradition of the nation’s renowned political lineage in the trenches of electioneering, a struggle that has been illusive for far too long.
The son of the late Benazir Bhutto, the twice-prime minister of Pakistan, who was assassinated on December 27, 2007, by opponents of democracy, Bilawal, the flesh and blood of the fabled Bhutto dynasty, has no choice but to follow in her footsteps and run for prime minister.
Bilawal, an Oxford alumnus, has been mentored by his father, Asif Ali Zardari, the former President of Pakistan and one of the most astute politicians the nation has ever seen, much like his mother and maternal grandpa Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto (ZAB).
As a result, the scion combines the best qualities of both political families when he steps up his campaign ahead of the crucial general election, hoping to revive the PPP’s flagging popularity.
