  • Says nepotism has been the downfall of the country

Former Minister Wimal Weerawansa thrashed SLPP MP Namal Rajapaksa, calling him a broiler chicken who was pumped up without any experience or political knowledge.
Weerawansa speaking at a rally in Hambantota said Namal was playing cricket with a group of SLPP MPs while the people were suffering.  “He is just like Ranil. He still has not learned anything. It is reasonable that people get angry. He never learns. He is a premature broiler chicken,” he said.  Furthermore, he said that nepotism has been the downfall of the country and the Rajapaksa family.  “They were planning to field Yoshitha Rajapaksa in Badulla District at the last General Election. It was Dullas Alahapperuma who requested Gotabaya Rajapaksa to stop it,” he said.
