Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe today hit back at UPFA MP Vasudeva Nanayakkara saying he is a ‘dried pumpkin’ who had lost the prime of his life.

A heated argument ensued between the MP and the Prime Minister in the parliament yesterday with Mr. Nanayakkara reportedly using obscenities against the Prime Minister.

“He is a dried pumpkin. This is how defeated people behave,” the Prime Minister said when referring to Mr. Nanayakkara’s use of language and his theatrics in parliament.

He made these comments when he met United National Party (UNP) activists at Sirikotha in Kotte. (Lahiru Pothmulla)

It is sad to see an elder statesman like Mr. Vasudeva Nanayakkara falling in to such low levels. May it is the company he is with nowadays.

President Maitree must throw away all old pumpkins in both SLFP and UNP. Young and most inteligent people brought Maithree to power. It is his duty to find a good inteligent far sighted leader to his parliament. All the old pumpkings in SLFP and UNP must be out from politics.

I do not think there is a voter base of exceeding 1000 in here (DM) who are pro to the PM. By the way, how many voting people do we have in this country ? Surely, Vasu has way less.

Vasu has long passed his useful age. According the original Communist law that Vasi is supposed to be following, useless people should be lined up and shot, so that younger generations can do their part for the betterment of the country.

If you call him an idiot, then in comparison, the rest of the SLFP MPs today are lunatics and uncouth, useless hooligans.

It is Ranil who is the eunuch, Vasudeva is as virile as he used to be, It is the circumstances under which Vasu used those words that should be looked at, Ranil deserves worse than that,

Some people may be dried pumpkins,and the others may be dried WAMBOTTU . This is why we need education qualifications, and a age limit for politicians .I think elderly people should leave politics and let the younger generation continue.

RW comes from a Royal family and Vasu came from the shanty.... that is why his language is different.

Vasudeva,an utterly useless impotent politician who has done nothing for the Sri Lankan people except draw a wage for doing simply nothing..Can anyone tell us one single useful thing vasu has done for either the country or any electorate he represented..After all these years he has not even managed to learn the art of decent parliamentary debating.

MR. Upali he was accepted by 6.2m people while electing the PResident. Vasu is not to be in the parliment if parliment would dissolved as per 100 day plan. These SLFPer are pusging the MS to keep the parliment for some time so that they can be in power for some time. Parliment shall be dissolved immediately

Well said. His " Massina" is also a cracked personality who could not control his own crowd but making noises. " Dried Pumpkin" is the correct label. Hon. PM could give a label to " Massina" also and I suggest name him as " Great Liar".

He used filth in the supreme parliament. This was on FB as a motion picture. Throwing a gush of abuse at the country’s Prime Minister in the supreme parliament only shows Vasu has lost all what he had beyond doubt. I wonder if he deserves to be a representative of the people.

He is a dried pumpkin but you are a moronic species who should never hold any high office. I have not seen another PM speaking childishly like a pre-civilisation Disapamok calling fellow MPs to "vaadivenava", "me yakku", "Gihin ahanava" again and again.

For a coin to be devalued, it should be of some value at some earlier time. In the case of Vasu, he was never of any single use to this country, absolute eunuch.
