This is called "Nepotism" ... which is currently at its peak.
To give you an idea, our very own beloved Prime Minister have distributed at least 20 higher governmental posts to his family (and growing). This would eventually lead to many incompetent people getting powers to run affairs for which they have not studied or have no experience of. Granting such powers to unqualified people would definitely lead to series of catastrophic events ... and ultimately ... Failures of paramount proportions. Deliberately handing powers to people who were not deserving is an act of harming one's country.
This act itself is criminal and unpatriotic. Ministers openly defy their responsibilities and blame it on people themselves. Before coming into power, these same people were telling stories and fairytales of converting their cities into the likes of Paris and Milan, running Bullet Trains, getting rid of loadshedding within 6 months to 2 years... infact, if you happen to read PMLN's 60-page manifesto, they have hardly delivered on any major issue Pakistan is currently facing.
The most important of all which is still missing, TAX REFORMS. Pakistanis are already second to the most charitable nation as per their GDP in South Asian corridor (next to Sri Lanka), people are much more willing to pay taxes ... if rich are going to pay as well and people are assured their taxes are going to be invested on them. But, here comes the Big Problem - Most politicians are rich ... and hardly pay any tax at all. In fact, our current Prime Minister, Mr. Nawaz Sharif, who is one of the top 5 richest men in Pakistan, hardly pay any taxes. He owns the palace in Raiwind, more than 11 sugar mills, numerous properties in UK, Spain, UAE, KSA, etc, and currently have the title of the 4th wealthiest family of Pakistan. What's ironic here is that our Prime Minister himself is talking about getting rid of Nepotism (source)
However, the bigger problem are the people themselves. Current state of the people of Pakistan is that they are scared of losing whats little of left already. People of Pakistan have not realized yet that people should not be afraid of their governments, governments should be afraid of their people. Current state of citizens is poor and precarious. Currently, we are embroiled under this IMF loan fiasco so deep, that in few years to come, we won't be able to pay the interest (let alone the loan). When foreign entities are funding you - giving you money, you are obligated to follow their orders and do what they want you to do. This takes away citizen's free will and freedom of speech (well, we never had any anyways).
Pakistan is an extremely resourceful country and is quite capable of running itself, without the need of foreign aid. Pakistanis have marked their presence in many field; academia, scientific advancements, military, sports, businessmen, industrialists, activists, philanthropists, musicians, artists ... and this list goes on. People are hospitable and have contributed to great extent. The only problem is ... not realizing that this is their country and without it, there is no 'Pakistani'.
