Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader on Saturday said that Bangladesh will lose if Sheikh Hasina is defeated in the upcoming national election, reports UNB.
Sheikh Hasina must win to save the country’s poor people, he said.
Quader, also road, transport and bridges minister, came up with the remarks while addressing a food distribution programme organised marking the 48th martyrdom anniversary of the father of the nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman in Dhaka’s Mirpur on Saturday afternoon.
“There is no alternative to Sheikh Hasina,” he said, putting forward a question: who is a more competent prime minister than Sheikh Hasina in the country?
“BNP want the resignation of Sheikh Hasina, people don’t want Sheikh Hasina’s resignation, caretaker government and dissolution of the parliament,” he said.
Terming the BNP as a party of terrorism, corruption and killing people, he feared that the opposition party will erase the Awami League in a night if they come to power again.
BNP will swallow up the liberation war and democracy and turn the country into Pakistan and Afghanistan if they can grab power, the Awami League leader said.
Chaired by Dhaka North Awami League President Sheikh Bazlur Rahman, lawmaker Aga Khan Mintu, Organising Secretary of the party’s central committee Mirza Azam and Dhaka north unit’s General Secretary SM Mannan Kochi among others spoke at the event.
