SJB Leader wants action against not only Rambukwella but also 113 MPs who defeated no-faith motion against him
Opposition and SJB leader Sajith Premadasa says that not only former Health Minister Keheliya Rambukwella but also the 113 MPs who defeated the no-faith motion, should be held responsible for the immunoglobulin scam.
Speaking at a ceremony held at Kalawewa Muslim Maha Vidyalaya,where he inaugurated a smart classroom,Premadasa said that it was the SJB that had exposed corruption in the Health Ministry on the watch of Rambukwella. “Our MP Dr Kavinda Jayawardena moved a no-faith motion against Rambukwella and it was defeated by 113 Pohottuwa MPs. We had only 73 votes for the motion seeking the removal of Rambukwella.
“They who protected him too are responsible for this scam. With their support Rambukwella managed to stay in his position. We hope that people will get the names of MPs who voted for Rambukwella defeat them at the next election.”Premadasa said that the country would not be able to secure foreign investments as long as thieves ran the government.
