Ishara Mudugamuwa

Seventeen candidates will contest the upcoming general election from the National Freedom Front, NFF leader, Wimal Weerawansa said. He also said, “As our party gave its unstinted support to President Mahinda Rajapaksa to liberate the country, the people will be grateful to the NFF and cast their vote for our candidates.

This is the last chance for Sri Lanka to make a big change for the betterment of the country’s future. Hereafter all of us have to work for the development of the country in all sectors such as health and education.”

He said certain people try to point out the dangers of a two thirds majority to one single party. But this is necessary to make changes for the good of the country.

It is necessary to reduce the number of ministers and also there is a need to create certain changes in the democratic setup.

Therefore as a party which supports the President in the path of development we will give our fullest support to him to create a better Sri Lanka. We will never allow any foreign force to create problems in our country, he added.
