Forget election for next five years if not held on Feb 08: Gabol

In a recent statement, senior leader of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP), Nabil Gabol, issued a stern warning, stating that if the elections scheduled for February 8 are not held, the country can forget about elections for the next five years. Gabol, while expressing worry about the safety of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman, underscored that such life threats were common to all political figures.

During an interview with a private TV channel program, Gabol questioned the reasons behind a potential delay in the elections, stating, “Tell me why the election will not be held on February 8? Is Maulana Fazlur Rehman getting cold, so it will not be held?” He urged that elections worldwide take place during winter and suggested that if Maulana Fazlur Rehman’s life is at risk, his party should conduct election campaigns on his behalf, rather than postponing the elections.

Gabol dismissed the idea of giving special protection to Maulana Fazlur Rehman, revealing alleged meetings between Maulana and the leadership of Muslim League-N. According to Gabol, Maulana had expressed his desire to be made the President of the country during these meetings. Gabol cautioned against trusting the promises of the Sharif family, asserting, “Sharifs do not take any time to renege on the promises they make; these people are just using them.”

Responding to concerns about the functioning of the country’s system in the absence of February elections, Gabol stated, “If the elections were not held in February, and the country will not see elections for the next five years, the system will continue to run by those who currently hold power.”

As political tensions rise and the nation awaits the upcoming elections, Gabol’s remarks shed light on the potential consequences of any delays in the electoral process.
