Outsiders creating rifts, says Fahim
Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) prime ministerial hopeful Makhdoom Amin Fahim on Monday accused outsiders of creating rifts in the party over his nomination and expressed his resolve to brave these intrigues to keep the party united.
Some outsiders are trying to create rifts and divide the party over the issue of [my] premiership candidature, but I will not let them succeed, a composed and confident Fahim told Daily Times at the Parliament building.
Fielding a volley of questions on the issue, Fahim responded to one, saying: I have left it to Asif Ali Zardari, but parried another on what his reaction would be if Zardari nominated someone else for the top slot.
Earlier, Fahim had said that he would support Zardari as the partys prime ministerial candidate on the latters request. Otherwise, he said he would be the candidate come what may.
