The 6.9 million people who voted the present administration into power is also responsible for the failure of systems in the country in addition to those in the government itself, Leader of Opposition Sajith Premadasa said yesterday.

Mr. Premadasa who was speaking during the mobile service in Tissamaharama, said “The 6.9 million people voted this government into power in order to put country’s systems in place.“however the systems have fallen today,” he said.

“The people today have been forced to consume New Year delicacies made out of contaminated edible oil which carries a high risk of cancer. This is because contaminated edible coconut oil which was imported recently have already reached the market. Health authorities and the Department of Customs are responsible for it,” he said.

“There is a connection between the sugar scam and the importation of contaminated oil,“Mr. Premadasa also said. (YOHAN PERERA)

Failures of your Yahapalana government brought these idiots to power. So you are responsible. Then for Easter Sunday, bond scam too.

Sure and also the UNP for doing the ground work for this victory. As we all know Ranil and this Royal group are an asset for the Buds. As long as they are in politics the the Buds can remain in power. You should have abandoned the UNP ten years ago.

Ranil and UNP muts have lead the way for this criminals to get into power. Finally the 6.9million were fooled and paying the price for their unrealized mistake. Should have used those buffalo brains finer . Now the whole country is in grave disaster

The UNP covertly helped the present rulers to come to power by its actions like bond scams.

Some seem to be born again recently forgetting some of the good things done during the last government and the accusation pointed at the people in power for April 21st bombings.
