The Chief Executive of the Government of National Unity Abdullah Abdullah reacted at yesterday’s remarks of Hezb-e-Islami leader Gulbuddin Hekmatyar after he claimed that the share of certain tribes have been compromised in the government.
AVA- Speaking to supporters in a larage gathering in Khost province on Sunday, Hekmatyar said the share of the eastern and southeastern provinces in the government are less as compared to the shares given to Panjshir, Bamiyan, and Daikundi provinces.
He specifically mentioned a specific tribe during his speech and said the Zadran tribe has been deprived of power only because the leader of the notorious Haqqani terrorist network hails from the same tribe.
Hekmatyar further added that the people of Zadran tribe are paying the ultimate price because the leader of Haqqani network Jalaluddin Haqqani has fought against the US forces.
Harshly criticizing the monopolist approach by certain individuals and circles, Hekmatyar said different islands of power exist across the country which must be eliminated immediately.
According to Hekmatyar, the only legitimate way to reach to power is through elections as he called on other political parties to ascertain their role in the governance through elections.
However, Abdullah said the nation needs unity among the people more than any other time and said such remarks will only help the enemies to benefit from fueling the ethnic and religious violence in the country.
