(Lanka-e-News 05.July.2010 5.00AM) The former Assist. leader of the UNP , Rukman Senanayake said , Ranil Wickremesinghe must necessarily resign from his post of leader of the party .
He can continue to be the leader of the Opposition , but he must resign his post as party leader , he vehemently insisted.
Rukman Senanayake declared that the leadership should be handed over to Sajith Premadasa. All must accept that , today , Sajith is the most popular individual. Hence , there is also a strong request that he should be made the leader. If that is the request of the party , that request should be acceded to. Why should there be opposition to that ?, he asked.
Rukman made these above comments at an interview with the Sunday Lankadeepa.
No matter what anybody may say , the whole objective of this party re structuring is to give an opportunity to the party members to decide and choose a leader. I wish to ask , how can there be any opposition to this?. In those circumstances , it will not be important whether Sajith is elected or anybody else. But , the opportunity must be given to the party to decide who should become the leader. |

It there is no change in the leadership from this re structuring , then God alone must save the party. The party will never be re built . The party will just fritter away and evaporate into thin air. This is why I insist that there should be a change in the leadership. A person like Sajith should be designated the leadership , and a new journey begun. Therefore without a change of leadership , this party has absolutely no other way out , Rukman emphasized. |
