80 Ministers, MPs Plan to Leave Sri Lanka After Election

COLOMBO (News 1st); Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) MP Mujibar Rahman has revealed that there are reports indicating that approximately 80 key ministers and MPs are preparing to leave the country after September 21st. 

"Initially, those ministers were on Ranil Wickremesinghe’s stage. Who is there now? There were people who used to be media spokespersons. Now, there is none. They have all come to understand Ranil Wickremesinghe’s true nature. With the information we have, they are very regretful about their actions. They have lost the SLPP and realized they cannot continue with Ranil Wickremesinghe. Today, they are a group of people caught between two worlds," Rahman stated.

He further explained that many of these individuals have already secured visas and are planning to leave the country. 

"Around 80 of them have already secured the visa. They now understand that Ranil Wickremesinghe is not their protector. It has become clear to them that Ranil Wickremesinghe is using them to climb over their shoulders and work towards Anura Kumara’s victory," Rahman added.

This revelation comes at a critical time as Sri Lanka approaches significant political changes, with the upcoming Presidential election on September 21st.
