COLOMBO (News1st): The Our Power of People Party (OPPP)’s problem over its national list seat will be resolved by the national election commission on Wednesday, a party member has said.

The OPPP has been fractured over its national list seat with two factions laying claim to the position.

“The commission is yet to decide whether (Ven. Wedinigama) Wimalatissa Thero or the name proposed by the current secretary will be accepted,” the party member said on Tuesday.

He made these remarks after a meeting between both factions at the election commission that ended in a stalemate.

“We cannot predict the decision that would be made. The commission will decide on this tomorrow,” the party member told reporters.
