SJB’s Hirunika Premachandra has indicated that MP Eran Wickramaratne is likely to be nominated as the party’s mayoral candidate.
“It is clear that people voted the NPP into power out of frustration with the political establishment. The current parliamentarians exemplify this, as they have neither fulfilled their duties as MPs nor demonstrated an understanding of how to do so,” she said.
“As a woman, I am pleased that a female candidate has been nominated by the NPP. However, I believe former Minister Eran Wickramaratne is expected to be our candidate, though there has been no official confirmation yet. He is highly qualified and widely accepted by the public,” she said.
Premachandra added that the role of Mayor of the Colombo Municipal Council is demanding and requires strong international and diplomatic relations. (Newswire)
