Ketagoda makes way for Basil Daily News (via HT Media Ltd.)
The Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna has nominated Economic Revival and Poverty Alleviation Presidential Task Force Head and former Minister Basil Rajapaksa to fill the vacancy left by the resignation of MP Jayantha Ketagoda, the National Election Commission (NEC) said.
He said the relevant Gazette would be sent for publication today after a meeting of the NEC.
SLPP General Secretary MP Sagara Kariyawasam told the media that SLPP Founder and strongman Basil Rajapaksa would be sworn in as a Member of Parliament tomorrow. Rajapaksa is tipped to be appointed as a new Cabinet Minister and he is to be assigned responsibilities related to finance and economic development.
Mahama described the election results announced by the Electoral Commission (EC) as “fictionalised.”
He said: “I stand before you tonight unwilling to accept the fictionalised result of a flawed election.”
Giving reasons why the NDC rejected the declaration by the EC as flawed and one that would not be accepted, he said the NDC is “unable to accept the outcome of the election as declared by the Electoral Commission Chairperson, Mrs. Jean Mensah. Those results are flawed and discredited.
“The Electoral Commission of Ghana has never brought its credibility to this historic low at such a crucial moment of election result declaration. In fact, the litany of irregularities and blatant attempts at rigging for a candidate is obvious and most embarrassing.”
