Former Minister Mangala Samaraweera said that both the Leader of the United National Party (UNP) Ranil Wickremesinghe and the Leader of the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) Sajith Premadasa, have the ability and skill to work as the Prime Minister of Sri Lanka.
The former finance and foreign minister, who has stepped down from 'parliamentary politics' and entered into 'cyber politics', made these remarks while speaking to Ada Derana.
When inquired about his decision to withdraw from the election campaign, Samaraweera stated he felt that the duties of the opposition were not being carried out in a proper manner.
He further said that he stepped away from the party, even after handing over nominations, due to certain ideological differences.
