I can see my father alive – Sajith
Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa said he will not be threatened to join the political gamble and that he is ready to retire from politics and join the people’s struggle.
He was speaking at the commemoration of the late President Ranasinghe Primadasa.” We are ready to fulfill the wishes of the Galle Face Heroes without exposing them.
No matter what privileges or positions are offered to us, we will not be fooled by them. We are ready to relinquish power on principle. But I will say one thing while standing in front of my father’s statue. I see my father alive. We are not ready to join this interim corrupt government.
If the people reject us then we are ready to respect their opinion. These posts of President, Prime Minister and Leader of the Opposition are not worth a dime if the 22 million people are suffering What Precedency? What Premiership? What a joke? What Opposition Leadership? Listen carefully and if the hat fits anyone can put it on.
Do not threaten me with one political gamble. I am not afraid of threats. I am not afraid to retire from politics. Everyone listen carefully. I am ready to give up all these things and join the people’s struggle as a civilian.”
