They used to call me a mighty king before, but now (they) call me a wolf, former President Mahinda Rajapaksa says.


The observation was made while speaking at an event held in Weligama.


Rajapaksa also charged the Government of continuing the development projects that had been launched by them, without giving credits to the former Government.


“The decision to build a Green University was our idea, but now they claim it as a concept of theirs,” he added.


Rajapaksa went on to say that a political witch hunt against the MPs of the Joint Opposition is underway and also warned MP Wimal Weerawansa to be ready because he would be the next to be arrested.
