The Treasurer of the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) S. B. Nawinne had crossed over to the United National Party (UNP), the UNP said today.

UNP Assistant General Secretary and Education Minister Akila Viraj Kariyawasam said Minister S.B. Nawinne would contest the General Elections from the UNP.

“We will also appoint him as UNP Organiser for Wariyapola in an event to be held tomorrow morning in Kurunegala,” Kariyawasam said.

S. B. Nawinne was appointed as the Labour and Labour Relations Minister by President Maithripala Sirisena in March. (Lahiru Pothmulla)

Genuine persons in SLFP will find it difficult to continue in the party anymore.

The SLFP will loose all of its honest politicians due to the stupid actions of MS nominating MR

Wrong decision, If SLFP took the collective decision to bring Rajapaksa back you should respect it rather than opposing.

Ansel Sunday, 05 July 2015 04:07 AM

Good show because SLFP is taking the corrupt rout.
