We will not support Gotabaya Rajapaksa-Azath Salley

COLOMBO (News 1st) - Leader of the National Unity Front Azath Salley convened a media briefing today and noted that nobody was brave enough to oppose Gotabaya Rajapaksa when he sold out the Galle Face lands to Shangri La. He questioned whether Gotabaya Rajapaksa could come forward and assure that he did not beat Keith Noyahr, kill Lasantha Wickramatunga and the Rajapaksa's did not kill those who demanded water in Rathupaswala? Azath Salley noted that in the election no candidate will be able to acquire over 50% and will have to count 2nd and 3rd votes. He added that they are not anxious to reveal their candidate yet and they would present their candidate on a collective decision. He confidently noted that they would never join hands with SLPP as they are racists and they are out to get the minority. When a journalist questioned that throughout the history the minority managed to take ministerial portfolios, Azath Salley assured that this would not occur as MPs like Udaya Gammanpila and Wimal Weerawansa clearly stated they would not involve political figures such as Rauf Hakeem and Rishad Bathiudeen.
