He was of the view that if he would be elected he would be the second president of Pakistan belonging to Karachi and it would be an honour for the Sindh province too. “But I am Pakistani and love my country and will prove it practically.”
He stressed that after coming into power he would focus on major issues like water, education, health and most importantly towards tree plantation, adding the previous governments did nothing to resolve issues of the people.
He said time has come when all parties should concentrate on the matters important for the country and masses.
