Cracks seemed to have surfaced on Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB)’s machinery in Colombo District with its Maharagama co-organiser teledrama actor Rodney Fraser threatening to resign from the party and move out of politics following alleged sidelining.

Mr. Fraser announced his desire to resign from the party and give up politics, at a meeting held in Maharagama over the weekend. “My family had wanted me to give up politics. Also I would like to tell the party leader to remove me from the party if he does not require my services. This maybe my last speech as a member of the SJB,” he told the rally.

“I have spent my personal funds in order to campaign for the SJB leader and had even sold my personal properties to engage in politics. I am also a coordinating officer of Mr. Premadasa.

“I hope the party leadership decides to gather all SJBers in Maharagama together and decide to work with everyone instead of sidelining anyone,” he also said. (Yohan Perera)

Sajith should not allow the SJB to function like a gamay Kopi Kade where his haamine and sister interfere in the happenings of the party.

Rodney Fraser should have settled any differences by discussion with the Party Leader instead of going Public?

Rodney you have made a wrong decision with no patiences when the SJB is on the last lap of the relay to gain power as all other parties have dug their own graves. By doing this the presumption is that you intend joining the "Kope Kade"with you erstwhile friends like "Muwa"

Bad treatment by Sajith will lead only he to remain in the SJB, which is very dangerous. He is not a good leader and it's clear now.

Lot more to come and join RW and he don't need to care or depend on SLPP puppies now. Well, next election he can form up a strong Government (minus SLPP robbers). All the best Mr. President.

Sajith must be grateful to Rodney. So, he must be made the organizer of Maharagama, without waiting for Patali as Patali wants to become the leader and the president of the country, instantly.

I suggest not to join the Satan Team to Destroy this beautiful island - just resign and enjoy the life!! Unfortunately, the mother SL did not get any patriotic politician since 1948!
