[The Admiral]
President Anura defended his friend Kumara Jayakody. Reviewed all reports personally. Checked every document. Examined every detail. Found nothing wrong. Zero corruption. Perfect tender. Clean minister. Case closed.
Anura is not just President now. He is Kekille too. Judge, jury, and best friend of accused. Very impartial. Very legal. Very convenient. Even actual Chief Justice would not deliver verdict for best friend. But President can. Because President is special.
Everyone in government defended Jayakody. United front. Solid support. No corruption here. Move along. Nothing to see. Minister is clean. Tender is perfect. Coal is excellent. Everything fine.
Then Bimal spoke. The Transport Minister Bimal. The man with no loyalty. The man who protects nobody. The man who accidentally tells truth sometimes.
Jayakody is not Bimal's friend. So Bimal had no reason to protect him. Bimal said yes, coal quality was bad. Very bad. Terrible coal. Aney, apoi, what to do now? Damage done. Mistakes happen. Life goes on.
Boom. Explosion. Train wreck. Everyone who defended Jayakody now under the bus. Under the train. Under everything heavy and moving.
Anura defended Jayakody. Found nothing wrong. Bimal says coal was bad. So Anura was wrong. Or lying. Or blind. Pick one.
Everyone said no corruption. Bimal says coal was bad. Bad coal means bad tender. Bad tender means bad decision. Bad decision means corruption. Or stupidity. Or both. Probably both.
So coal was bad. Tender was bad. Decision was bad. Everything bad. But somehow no corruption. Just accidentally bought terrible coal for billions. Pure coincidence. Could happen to anyone. Definitely not corruption.
Now High Court speaks. Indicts Jayakody for corruption. Different case. Before he became Minister. But still corruption. Proven corruption. Court-certified corruption. Not allegations. Indictment. Legal charges. Actual case.
But Jayakody is still Minister. Still Power and Energy Minister. Still making deals. Still shaking hands with Russians. Even Russian mafia scared of Jayakody now. Russians would have washed their hands with Lifebouy after that handshake. The man with court indictment still controlling nation's power. Very reassuring. Very clean government. Very revolutionary.
Let us check history. Compare with cursed 76 years. The corrupt years. The bad years. The years of shame.
Basil Rajapaksa resigned. 2022. No proven allegations. Just resigned. Gone.
Chamal Rajapaksa resigned. 2022. No proven allegations. Just left. Finished.
Namal Rajapaksa resigned. 2022. No proven allegations. Just stepped down. Over.
Hakeem resigned after Easter attack. No proven allegations. Gone.
Bathiudeen resigned after Easter attack. No proven allegations. Finished.
Tilak Marapana resigned during bond scam. Allegations only. No charges. Just resigned. Left.
Ravi Karunanayake resigned during bond scam. Allegations only. No proof. Just stepped down. Done.
All these people from cursed 76 years. Corrupt years. Bad years. They resigned. Without court cases. Without indictments. Just allegations. Just pressure. Just shame.
They had shame. They understood responsibility. They knew when to go. They left.
But Jayakody. Pure Jayakody. Clean Jayakody. Revolutionary Jayakody. Court-indicted Jayakody. Bad-coal Jayakody. He stays. Still Minister. Still powerful. Still making decisions. Still controlling energy. Still destroying power sector. Still untouchable.
How can cursed 76 years people resign without proof but pure revolutionary government people stay with court indictment? How does this mathematics work?
The revolutionary government less accountable than past corrupt governments. The pure people are shameless than past corrupt people.
Answer is simple. Jayakody will not resign. Cannot resign. Knows too much. Seen too much. Heard too much. Did too much. With too many people.
If Jayakody speaks, government collapses. If Jayakody talks, secrets spill. If Jayakody opens mouth, everyone drowns. He will not go to jail alone. Never alone. He takes others. Many others. All the others.
So Jayakody stays. Protected. Defended. Supported. By President who became Kekille. By government who sees no corruption. By party who values loyalty over law. By system that protects criminals who know secrets.
This is not revolution. This is protection racket. Wijeweera and Gamanayake would be turning upside. Oh, the lost comrades of 89.
This is mafia with ministerial positions.
Basil resigned. Hakeem resigned. Marapona resigned. Ravi resigned. All cursed 76 years people. All with shame.
Jayakody stays. Revolutionary government person. With court indictment. Zero shame.
The corrupt governments were more accountable. The bad old days had some shame.
This revolutionary government has revolutionised corruption. Made it acceptable. Made it defensible. Made it normal. Made court indictments ignorable.
Made bad coal deals explainable. Made everything forgivable as long as you know secrets.
Wake up. This government is worse than governments they replaced. More shameless. More corrupt. More criminal. More protective of criminals. More willing to destroy standards. More ready to abandon principles.
Jayakody should resign. Today. Now. Immediately. Not tomorrow. Not next week. Not after court case. Now.
But he will not. Because government needs him silent. Needs him loyal. Needs him inside tent. Needs his secrets buried. Needs his knowledge contained. Needs him as hostage and protector simultaneously.
This is your clean government. Your revolutionary administration. Your pure leadership. Protecting court-indicted minister because he knows too much. Defending bad coal buyer because he must stay quiet. Supporting corruption because alternative is government collapse.
Wake up. The revolution is dead. The purity is fake. The cleanliness is lie. And Jayakody is still Minister because the leaders are spineless including the opposition leader.
If Anura was the opposition leader, Minister Jayakody would have been punished in the Galle Face green.
At least cursed years had shame. This revolution has none.
