Bilawal House

Published April 18, 2014

BILAWAL Bhutto-Zardari is a smart, young person and people look up to him. I have just a small request for him. I would like him to open the main road in front of his house for the people who will vote for him.

I am sure he knows that the road around the White House and Buckingham Palace are open to the public. If he really wants to be a leader, he should be a leader of the people and issue an order today to open the road. He should not be afraid of the people who love him.
