Namal’s advice to President Ranil Wickremesinghe on what to do next
Posted by Editor on September 1, 2022 - 5:41 pm
Parliamentarian Namal Rajapakasa said that he believes President Ranil Wickremesinghe should create a stable government with the 134 MPs who voted in favour of him and not those who opposed him.
“The President should not embrace all the 225 MPs now. What he should instead do is create a stable government with the 134 MPs who voted for him and appoint ministers and state ministers among them. Then we can move forward,” Namal said.

You are hardly the expert considering what happened to your dad and uncle. But, yes, it is time to move on.
Wouldn’t count him out altogether.
Mahinda Rajapaksa made two decisions, one in 2009, calling early elections and the second in 2019, nominating a non-politician to the highest office in the Nation, both of which had disastrous consequences on the fabric of our Nation.
As opposed to viewing these two decisions as failures, they should be classified as lessons learnt.
I can see maturity growing in Namal and look forward to positive contributions from him in future.
Thanks You for the positive comment Roxie.
The negativism and parochialism that exists among politicians and the failure to recognize maturity and leadership are the bane of the Nation.
Ah! Just blind leading the blind.
