Former President Maithripala Sirisena on Saturday said his political career was not over yet and he would be ‘reborn’ in politics.
Sirisena said he would continue to be in active politics for years to come.
Speaking at a felicitation ceremony at the Pulathisi Buddhi Mandapa in Polonnaruwa, the former President said that some people thought that since he was no longer the President his political career was also over. “But they are wrong. I will serve the people and my country till I die. No one can prevent me doing so.’

You were written off five years ago. R I P
you were further written off when you pardon a prisoner without following proper proceedures which may be a contempt of Court
How true! Yes, with the stellar performance record and the bright future you left us with, yes how can we forget you easily…yes pambaya, please stay patient as we will call you back to lead us in another 500 years!
You will go down in history for the worst president and I am sure your name will come up when people want yo have a laugh.
Mr. former President, You were not worth the paper your name was written ON by the cunning and vile Ranil and his band of UNPers..You were put on a make -shift throne and paraded through the streets of Sri Lanka in full nudity as the Sixth Executive President. Please come to stark Reality , run away and hide yourself in your Pulasthi Pura never to be seen or be heard in our political arena. for many more years to come. You have beaten King Yasalalalitha Tissa as the biggest Clown.
