I have seen Musharraf facing hundreds of Indian scholars and they pointing “guns” at him. He not only defended his stance without budging the slightest but also made them clap for the same stances Indians were initially angry at. A great expression of confidence and convincing power. Thumbs up for that!
Now come towards the other side. Musharraf had authority to do anything and everything being the Chief Executive of Pakistan and let’s see what he did being so powerful and almighty. There was a report published by Public Accounts Committee (correct me if that was issued by some other body) that all the offices chaired by ex or in-service military personals are getting defaulter. The report data and the whole office were burnt with complete record and details. Media had protested and highlighted that but who was there to listen. This was not the first incident of corruption or misuse of power from his side but every time, he ended up favoring the people he was standing with.
I am not against army serving the civilian sectors but Musharraf had stood for “Pakistan First”, he must have stood for the country and had brought to justice every single person involved in the corruption. But what we had instead, burnt records and offices. Since Musharraf came into power illegitimately, he needed people who could support him at every cost and he ended up collecting the worst out of worst. He got deluded that he could do wonders for the country being at the top of the pyramid, he can go along with corrupt characters sitting under him. I don’t doubt his personal intentions or patriotism but his decisions has harmed the country to unprecedented levels. The notorious politicians team he was standing upon has made him nothing but equal corrupt and responsible for results. We have seen Musharraf denying international reports about corruption and poor governance but we didn’t see a single action or corrective measure taken up by him. His hand-picked prime minister made numerous stock-exchange scandals and was on the verge of selling Pakistan Steel for peanuts but Musharraf remained silent and rather penalized the person who stopped the sale of National assert of immense importance. When you see Musharraf standing with such people, he doesn't appear any prettier. Nation has tested him for 9 good years and has seen what he could do in terms of Security, Social Development, Nation Building and above all, self respect.
A right person standing on the wrong side doesn't do any good. Musharraf has committed irreversible mistakes which Nation is not ready to tolerate. His own record of the past people associated with him are not good enough to be given yet another chance or some importance position in the country.
Musharraf might have been a great person in himself who put forth great slogan, “Pakistan First” but didn't mention he comes even before Pakistan.
