The Deputy Minister of Higher Education Nandimithra Ekanayake said today that he was ready to retire from politics.

“The time has come for us to retire. The opportunity should be given for the intellectuals and not for the dumb,” he said at a function held at the Ukuwela Divisional Secretariat.

He said there are politicians at present who steal half of the funds estimated for one kilometre to construct a road. “They build only half a kilometre from the estimated funds,” he said. (Mahesh Keerthiratne)

The dumbest of all dumb politicians. He had taken over 20 years to realise this. Prove your assertion by retiring with dignity. Or else you might claim that you were talking in your sleep. via DM iPad app
