Ranil Wickremesinghe sworn in as Acting President of Sri Lanka
Posted in Local News
Sri Lanka’s Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe was sworn in as Acting President before Chief Justice Jayantha Jayasuriya a short while ago.
His swearing-in came shortly after Speaker of Parliament Mahinda Yapa Abeywardena officially announced the resignation of Gotabaya Rajapaksa as the President of Sri Lanka.
Here we go! What more you want. Senile demented old man with old ides as the president to lead the highly qualified and educated Sri Lankens. Mini Hitler who as no idea even to run a dosey cafe. . Bring back Go Ta.
This is a funny type of “democracy” in SL. A failed politician and an unelected politician becomes the prime minister and now becomes the Acting President of Sri Lanka !!! He said he was “willing to resign post of prime minister” and now wants the Speaker and party leaders to postpone the said appointments !! The probity shown is staggering !! If one does not realise one’s limitations, he must be deemed UNFIT for public office.
Dr Fernando,
RW will be the Prezzo for the remaining term (2 yrs) plus two full terms (2 X 5yrs).
RW is 74 yrs old now and he will finish when he is 86 in a prosperous Sri Lanka.
Roxie, your statement, to say the least is LUDICROUS. RW’s lack of integrity, lethargy and inefficiency were clearly demonstrated together with President Sirisena during his term as PM in the “YAXAPALANA” government, which I think created all the problems Sri Lanka faces today !!
