National Freedom Front (NFF) Leader Wimal Weerawansa today said President Maithripala Sirisena has allowed Opposition MPs to appoint the Opposition Leader.

Mr. Weerawansa and several party leaders of UPFA met President Sirisena who is also the UPFA Chairman this morning to discuss the appointment of opposition leader. 

The central committee of the SLFP, the main constituent of the UPFA, earlier gave consent to the President to make the final decision on appointing the Opposition Leader.

    Wimal is a real person fighting against undemocratic acts by national leaders.

    It means TNA and JVP. Where WW fits into this equation??

    As per the election results the candidate who secured the second highest votes should be the Opposition Leader.

    Christopher D.D. Monday, 31 August 2015 12:52 PM

    I think by now, Wimal should be in Jail not in the parliament?

    Sincere Monday, 31 August 2015 12:57 PM

    Because My3 is a true democratic leader

    The SLFP being the largest group in the UPFA should select the Opp Ldr. Anyone other than the gang of four is acceptable.

    Nihal Amarasekera Monday, 31 August 2015 01:09 PM

    Wait and see.

    sach Monday, 31 August 2015 01:13 PM

    Sri Wickrama Monday, 31 August 2015 02:53 PM

    As SLFP in UPFA joined the National Govt any other party in UPFA has no moral right for Leader Of the Opposition.

    simon Monday, 31 August 2015 03:29 PM

    ANTON Monday, 31 August 2015 03:38 PM

    TONY Monday, 31 August 2015 03:51 PM

    WIMAL WILL WORK WITH GAMMANPILA TO APPOINT MR AS LEADER OF OPPOSITION. THAT IS WHAT HE IS TRYING. BUT TNA WILL NOT KEEP QUIET

    karigalan Monday, 31 August 2015 04:12 PM

    Mimal Modawansa Monday, 31 August 2015 04:44 PM

    sri Monday, 31 August 2015 09:24 PM
