Desperate discarded drowning Rajapakse clutching at last straw: 4 ministers blackmailed by him resign

(Lanka-e-News- 22.May.2015,10.20PM)  Four Ministers who secured portfolios under the government of good governance having  now realized that their blood sucking qualities of a leech cannot be held together  any longer , and are ailing from incurable itches caused by caterpillars under the new environment of good governance  tendered their resignations from their ministerial posts yesterday(21). All these four leeches are Rajapakse regime’s notorious shameless slaves and SLFP ‘s corrupt politicos.

Their names are : Mahinda Yapa Abeywardena,  minister of parliamentary affairs ; Dilan Perera , state minister for samurdhi; C.B. Ratnayake, State minister of  administration and democratic governance ; and Pavithra Wanniarachi , State minister for environment . After their resignation  they held a media briefing (the only thing they know to do) at the opposition leader’s office and berated prime minister Ranil Wickremesinghe. They will be supporting the 29 th amendment they added.

Based on reports reaching Lanka e news , Mahinda Rajapakse as a last resort and like  a drowning man clutching at the last straw is exerting tremendous pressures not only on these ministers but even all other erstwhile  pro Rajapakses  who are with Maithri as well as  with the government. One such threat of his  is : their files pertaining to their corruption and illicit activities will be exposed. In the circumstances , these ministers had to take this invariable step as they are aware if that exposure is made  they will not be  able to pretend and maintain a clean slate before the government of good governance . Moreover their future political career too will be  at stake.

One of those who was  swayed by the threats was Susil Premajayantha . It is under these threats of Mahinda that he and Nimal Siripala recently held a press briefing , at which briefing they loudly said ,the police special financial crimes investigation division (FCID) shall be dissolved.

Needless to say , Susil Pramajayantha is one who indulged in the worst corrupt activities under the last Rajapakse regime .It is Premajayantha who became notorious for importing petrol adulterated with water in order to pocket huge amounts of commission , and it was his son who traveled to Singapore to collect those illicit commissions. It is an open secret that Premajayantha bought a house in America out of these commissions.

Unfortunately , all the records of Premajayantha’s corrupt activities are not with the present government but with Mahinda Rajapakse.The latter had even threatened Premajayantha that a video tape of latter’s wife when taking a bribe is also in his custody . By these blackmails Mahinda has dragged poor Pramajayantha into Mahinda’s  brigade  of corrupt politicos . Premajayantha who did not hold any discussions which are not in line with the policies of the SLFP and the president , intriguingly convened a media briefing and announced that  the FCID shall be disbanded. Premajayantha most shamelessly exposed his corrupt and perfidious nature openly by openly saying he is against the FCID that is investigating financial frauds . In other words he said he is with the fraudsters  and the corrupt , obviously because he is one of them.

President Maithripala allocated ministries to these renegades with the hope of winning these pro Rajapakse lickspittles to his side . The president has today realized his effort did not bear fruits. A powerful businessman in Sri Lanka who masquerades as a supporter of Maithripala has spent towards these manipulations , according to LeN inside information division. This businessman had sought to provide cash to S.B Dissanayake and tried to induce him to quit the ministry , but S.B had turned down the offer, it is learnt.  

These incidents must bring home to president Maithripala the unassailable truth that the fascist ,brutal, corrupt ,barbaric , power greedy Rajapakses  and their  clan who were booted out on the 8th of January democratically cannot ever be won over to his side , and that he must only repose faith in the peaceful democratic forces .
