He said on Twitter, “I always stand with the People of Sri Lanka. And will celebrate victory soon. This should be continue without any violation.”
“In my entire life I have never seen the country United like this with one goal to throw out a failed Leader. The writing is now on YOUR official house WALL. Please go in peace. #GoHomeGota today!,” he added in another tweet.
In response to months of growing public outrage over the nation’s worst economic crisis in seven decades, thousands of protestors stormed the president’s official mansion and his secretariat in Sri Lanka’s commercial city Colombo on Saturday.
Just before tens of thousands of demonstrators stormed the property on Saturday, Sri Lankan President Gotabaya Rajapaksa left his official residence in Colombo. After the president left his home, Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe requested an urgent meeting with his cabinet ministers.
