The Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) youth wing unanimously decided to vote for acting President Ranil Wickremesinghe to nominate him as the successor to the president.

Its executive committe representative, Heamantha Sri Lal, today said the decision was taken by the executive committee that gathered yesterday.

He said that the central committee had decided to propose the acting President as the person who could overcome this current economic situation and other issues in the country other than former Premier Mahinda Rajapaksa.

He also appealed to the people of the country to accept the acting President after he would be appointed as the President tomorrow, as he was the only person to provide solutions for the current issues in the country and as he was the only person who had a clear vision and wide experience.

    Crazy boys Tuesday, 19 July 2022 08:22 PM

    A secret vote should not be published like this.

    Lanka Tuesday, 19 July 2022 08:46 PM

    Every single member of the SLPP youth wing have attacked Ranil personally in the past, with what face can they vote for him now?

    Citizen Tuesday, 19 July 2022 09:00 PM

    Brain less youth wing. No wonder in taking this decision. What else can we expect from you.

    Muhandiram Tuesday, 19 July 2022 10:37 PM

    How many youth wing members have voting rights in the Election tomorrow as ONLY MPs can vote?

    GHT Tuesday, 19 July 2022 11:08 PM

    Right decision at the right time. Youth wing has been appreciated by the people of Sri Lanka.

    Gets the heads checked up.

    David Wednesday, 20 July 2022 02:10 AM

    Youth wing? You mean Namak Rajapaksha and his goons?

    Amarapala Palabedda Wednesday, 20 July 2022 02:43 AM

    May be headless, non-professional existing youth!!

    Patriot Wednesday, 20 July 2022 04:11 AM

    Who the hell ? And what on Earth? This. Dose not make any. Sence

    Nimal Wednesday, 20 July 2022 04:18 AM

    Unfortunately, these are the stupid youths of Sri Lanka.

    Ananthapala Samarakoon Wednesday, 20 July 2022 05:39 AM

    Head and brainless youths to run this country!! What a shame!!

    SLK Wednesday, 20 July 2022 06:23 AM

    It's sad to see that younger generation is heavily relying on a person, who has proven to be incapable to prevent corruption. RW is also responsible for the current economic crisis, having contributed to bad governance for decades. It's high time for the youths to think outside the box and breed a bunch of new leaders. May God Bless Sri Lanka.

    Rene Wednesday, 20 July 2022 06:44 AM

    These are not genuine youth these are rogues

    Terrence Wednesday, 20 July 2022 07:05 AM

    All corrupt politicians and those who have to face Courts will vote for the corrupt candidate a part of the Rajapakse Regime

    Tissa Fernando Wednesday, 20 July 2022 08:14 AM

    Right choice as of today.

    Truth/Truth/Truth Wednesday, 20 July 2022 08:14 AM

    Tiny mushrooms born for yesterdays rain, shameful SLPP politics.

    Cherath Wednesday, 20 July 2022 08:31 AM

    And you and your leaders kept harping about how Anura Kumara was attending meetings with Ranil at Temple Trees to 'victimise' Rajapakshe family. That same Ranil is now your saviour! ???

    Man Wednesday, 20 July 2022 09:24 AM

    Please name those brave youth or notify, individually, on their own.

    Sambo Wednesday, 20 July 2022 09:40 AM

    They would have received quite a good amount of santhosam from Kaputa to have that change of mind.

    Amarapala Palabedda Wednesday, 20 July 2022 09:47 AM

    Your face shows that you are very frustrated, but no option!! Disgusting people never listen to people or never learn lessons like the failure - unwanted -unelected (by 95% of SL people) man RW!! All must go to HELL with him!!
