Colombo, September 24 (Daily Mirror) - The Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) will offer its full support, if the National People's Power (NPP) moves to abolish the Executive Presidency and change the electoral system, SLPP National Organiser Namal Rajapaksa said.

He told the media that although all the Presidents from 1994 till now had said they would abolish the Executive Presidency, no one has done so.

"The best time to abolish the Executive Presidency is now.

"Therefore, if there is a need to abolish the Executive Presidency, then do not delay," Namal Rajapaksa added.

Followers of NPP,please keep in your mind,it’s top places only for rajapakshas and you have to satisfy with what they allocate to you, badly defeated NPP nominee NR, selected as party candidate ,leaving more senior members such as PrassannaR,pavithra,ratharan rohitha and many, better join SJB its still have strong voter base

We kindly ask you to follow Ranil Maama's example. It's never too late for you to apologize on behalf of the whole clan and the henchmen for ruining the country. While we're thankful to your elderly father for bringing the war to an end with the support of brave generals like Mr. Sarath Fonseka, the destruction caused by your party is equal only to an instance where a woman, who was saved by a man, was raped by her savior himself. You can forget about your support in any shape or form and leave the hard work of building the nation to more intelligent, capable, and selfless individuals.

Namal, your family has done the biggest damage to Sri Lanka. People died due to gas cylinder explosions, fainted and died in petrol and gas queues, sold their properties to feed the families, pawned jewellery to pay for essentials,withdrew fixed deposits to pay for essentials, failed exams because no money to pay electricity bills,lost jobs and had to do minor jobs or go abroad for low paid jobs, had to migrate due to no opportunities. All because of the RAJAPAKSA family who have drained our country to zero. So, please retire quietly and we will allow you to live peacefully.Let the country be governed by people who really care for the country.
