Former SLFP Mahajana Wing Leader Mangala Samaraweera who joined the UNP recently is likely to be given a senior post in the party, UNP sources told Daily Mirror online.

Sources added that Mangala’s post is expected to be finalized once the UNP completes its reforms process.

“The UNP reforms are currently underway. It is only once this is done that Mangala might get a senior post within the party which will allow him to go to his electorate and work for his people,” sources said.

Samaraweera was officially sworn in as a UNP member on Friday after he dissolved the SLFP Mahajana Wing to which he was the leader, earlier last week. (Daily Mirror online)

Give him the dress maker post of UNP.

Bambuwa Tuesday, 10 August 2010 08:05 AM

His Father never joined UNP. This is a misinformation Ranil is spreading.

Lion Tuesday, 10 August 2010 08:04 AM

He will be an asset to UNP he will surpass every one in UNP except Ranil.

arshad Tuesday, 10 August 2010 06:24 AM

Hope for the best from him for the grand old Party . His father too joined the UNP in 1965 - He has followed his Father's footsteps

He is very capable leader and would have been the leader of SLFP after MR if he stayed that side. Need to treat him well

Gayan Samarasekara Tuesday, 10 August 2010 05:48 AM

Recommended for the post of national organizer. The best replacement for the vacancy of SB. The best friend of SB during Chandrika's era.

God save UNP

Elaris Monday, 09 August 2010 09:35 PM

Appointing him the media spokesman of the UNP would be a good match for Keheliya!

Yehiya-Doha Tuesday, 10 August 2010 05:16 AM

National organizer is most suit to him

sanus Tuesday, 10 August 2010 05:14 AM

Sumana Tuesday, 10 August 2010 05:08 AM

The end of the countries best political party is very near.. btw nice picture, im sure this is how he is when he wants something..

AJ Tuesday, 10 August 2010 05:06 AM

Another split in UNP is imminent.

Jaminda Mendis Tuesday, 10 August 2010 04:57 AM

He has ruined many individuals and parties. He was the only person missing from the ranil clan and now he is on board. UNP will be deteriorating more for sure. Malik, Ranil, Mangala, Sagala - nice partnership.

malkanthi Tuesday, 10 August 2010 04:34 AM

He was never a popular guy! UNP only concentrating in reforming and various unnecessary issues, while main party is grabbing all powers by hook or crook!

kassa Tuesday, 10 August 2010 04:32 AM

Another Disaster for UNP. Why will no young blood be on the front steps?

Fairose Tuesday, 10 August 2010 03:55 AM

Very talented politician. Truly fits to any senior posts.

Lanke Banda Tuesday, 10 August 2010 03:23 AM

Guard Post most suitable for him.

traitor Tuesday, 10 August 2010 02:46 AM
