Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry on Saturday responded to Asif Zardari’s tirade against the government, and said that the former president should start counting his days in politics. “Zardari is counting our 100 days. He should be counting his days in politics,” Fawad said in a statement.

The minister also mocked the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) co-chairman for saying “those with only three-year tenure have no right to make decisions”.

Earlier in the day, Zardari said asked as to how could someone, having a service tenure of just three years, reserve the right to make decisions for the nation. “Only parliament has this right and no one else.”

Fawad, responding to the statements, said that the last time Zardari gave such statements, he had to make Dubai his home for three years.
