Educational Secretary of the Frontline Socialist Party (FSP) Pubudu Jagoda has called upon Parliament to bring an impeachment motion against President Ranil Wickremesinghe.
Addressing a press conference in Colombo, Jagoda said that the President had made a statement in Parliament that there was no election to be postponed. “As per his latest statement, the Elections Commission’s announcement of its decision to hold elections on March 9, 2023 were not legal. If so, why did the UNP candidates contesting under his leadership make deposits and submit nominations. The next question is whether he was not aware of his party’s General Secretary signing those nomination papers. There is something seriously wrong here.” He said his party had serious doubts about the President’s sanity.
The only constitutional remedy available was to move a motion of impeachment against the President. Jagoda said.
