Kandy, July 15 (Daily Mirror)- Minister Lohan Ratwatte said he will not allow National Peoples Power (NPP) leader Anura Kumara Dissanayake to become the President of this country as long as he remains in politics.

"Has Anura Dissanayake constructed even a small culvert for the people? We won't allow him to become President of this country as long as I am around in politics," he said during a rally in Kandy.

"It is not worth speaking of Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa who looked at a man's hight and said he is good only for a security job," he added.

"I voted for Ranil Wickremesinghe in Parliament to elect him as the President with much hesitation but I will endorse him without any doubt now," he also said.

This man is noted by some Aragalaya Boys, for sure after the elections he will see stars by hard beatings. Only God has to help him.

Remember the saying." I may not agree with what you say but will defend your right to say it" Sri Lanka is a democratic country and while I do not support any JVP affiliated political parties if he wants to run for president then he has the same right as any other citizen of the country.

The audacity of the idiot is breathtaking. I am not a fan of AKD. But it is the people who decide who becomes to President, not this guy. So he was not sure of Ranil at the beginning, but now that he is a Minister, he has no doubts!!

Vote Them Out Similarly in UK Tuesday, 16 July 2024 05:55 AM

Similarly in England, all these kinds of low life’s should be thrown out of politics- period. They are of no good to the common man and those who voted them in should be ashamed of themselves and redeem themselves this time by not voting them in. They use tactics which is unfavourable and unfairly to get what they want and the common person has to accept them. Hope the younger generation will use their common sense and remove all these fellas who have been in power way to long and made the economy into a disaster.

I agree with you my dear friend. I remember the murder of Joel Pera, PNG Rugby Player on May 1 1997 and 10 members of Sri Lanka Muslim Congress on December 5, 2001 and attempted killing of LTTE prisoners at Anuradhapura Prison and many more. I know you can do it.

No thugs ruling anymore, vote for Anura to remove all stupid politicians from our country. We need change

Suman Udage Tuesday, 16 July 2024 03:59 PM

There is a hidden threat to Anura's life here. This Lohan is not an incapable man of committing heinous crimes, as his past history shows. Authorities so far left his unlawful crimes pass lightly.

You are a marked man. Anything happens to AKD will blow your head off. So take care.
