Former Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif failed to persuade opposition parties to boycott poll.

The All Parties Democratic Movement which met in Lahore to make a decision to discuss to boycott the upcoming elections could not agree on a joint position.

I have repeatedly said Pakistani politicians are corrupt to core. They only think about their interests.

Those were planning to isolate Musharraf have failed.

It appears that Musharraf has succeeded in dividing the opposition. The participation of all parties in the election will legitimize it.
