Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah has expressed confidence that PPP Chairman Asif Ali Zardari will take oath as the president within the next few weeks.

In a victory speech at the Sindh Assembly, he said there were just a handful of leaders in Pakistan who had a vision and they included Benazir Bhutto, Zardari and Bilawal.

“I urge you all to vote for him [Zardari] in the elections,” he said. CM Murad further stated that Bilawal will soon become the prime minister on the back of votes.

“It is only Bilawal who has given a way forward,” CM Murad said, promising that the former’s vision would be implemented to the extent of Sindh.
