Early life and education


Bilawal Zardari was born in Karachi on 21 September 1988 to Benazir Bhutto and her husband Asif Ali Zardari.[4] He is of partial Kurdish descent on his maternal side and Iraqi descent on his paternal side.[5]


He spent his early life in Pakistan and Dubai. He left Pakistan with his mother in 1997 and went to London when Bhutto family was in exile.[6]


He received his BA (Hons.) in modern history and politics from Christ Church College of the University of Oxford in 2012[7][8]



Political career


On 30 December 2007, at 19 years of age, Zardari was appointed chairman of the PPP and his father Asif Ali Zardari, announced his son's name change from Bilawal Zardari to Bilawal Bhutto Zardari.[9]



2018 elections


See also: Pakistani general election, 2018

Zardari led the party in the 2018 elections where he lost two of the three seats that he contested and one of these was historically an extremely safe seat for the PPP, where Zardari finished third, in a result described as rejection of Zardari.[10][11] However, almost all parties, excluding Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, alleged large-scale vote rigging and administrative malpractices in the elections.[12][13][14] PPP won a total of 43 seats, an increase of 9 seats from 2013 elections and it remained the largest party in Sindh.[15][16]
