Addressing the event, Bilawal said,
I am very thankful to Madame Tussauds for having us here today.
He further stated that it was indeed an honor and privilege that they were unveiling the statue of Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto here at Madame Tussauds in Dubai.
Recalling his memories, the minister said that her mother had spent around 10 years in Dubai when they were in exile. “So, we have a close attachment to the city and the country,” Bilawal added.
Bilawal said that they were grateful that the memory of her mother was being honored there in the form of a wax statue.
She is a symbol of democracy, freedom, and equal rights for women across the world in the peaceful, prosperous, and progressive face of Pakistan.
He thanked the entire team at the museum for creating the wax figure of his assassinated mother.
Benazir was the first woman to be elected as the prime minister of Pakistan twice. She was assassinated in a gun and bomb attack on 27 December 2007, after leaving her party’s last rally in Rawalpindi‚ two weeks before the scheduled general election of 2008 in which she was a leading opposition candidate. She was also the first female elected prime minister in the Muslim world.
Sad his son is standing with a corruption queen.
