Former president Asif Ali Zardari would return to Pakistan from Dubai on December 22, sources told Daily Times on Tuesday.
They added that Zardari would attend the death anniversary of slain Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) chairwoman Benazir Bhutto. Sources said that the former president would stay in Pakistan until December 29 and then will go back to Dubai. PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and his sisters Bakhtawar and Aseefa played a pivotal role in convincing the former president in coming back to Pakistan and attend the death anniversary of their mother, sources said further. The former president left Pakistan around two years back after an anti-army tirade during a ceremony at Zardari House, Islamabad. Sources said close confidants advised Zardari to leave the country in the wake of the speech.
The former president is likely to stay in Naudero where he would also preside over the meetings, sources said. Zardari would also address a public gathering on December 27 on the death anniversary of Benazir Bhutto, they said, adding that it is likely that he would announce his agitation plan against Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s government.
