President’s youngest son ruins ‘Army rugger’!
- Monday, 29 December 2014
The Sri Lanka Army’s ruggerites have revealed to ‘Lanka News Web’ as to how president’s youngest son Rohitha Rajapaksa alias Chichi has ruined the Army rugger team that had been built at great pains, cost and which had been time-consuming.
In the first stage, a 60 member team was chosen from among tens of thousands of members of the Army in order to create a strong and celebrated rugger team. In the second stage, the number was reduced to 50, and it was shortlisted to 40 in the third stage and to 30 in the fourth stage.
Understanding that the team so chosen would be a big challenge to them at inter-club level, the three sons of the president, who are owners of Sri Lanka rugger, plotted a conspiracy.
Accordingly, Rohitha telephoned Army commander Gen. Daya Ratnayake and said he wanted to become captain of the Army rugger team. The Army chief immediately summoned the officer in charge of the Army’s rugger team and told him to include Rohitha as a guest player and give him captaincy in view of his seniority. Members of the Army’s rugger team first thought that Rohitha would be a blessing for them, and that they too, could make use of his experience, and agreed to their chief’s order.
But, none of them thought for a moment that Rohitha was coming to destroy their team. They suffered a heavy defeat in the first match under Chichi’s captaincy. Chichi has said that a lack of experience was the reason for the Army’s loss. For the second match, he included three of his friends to the team. That match too, was lost, and for the next game, three more friends were added. But, the result was the same. Now, the Army rugger team has lost all its matches, and has only three Army personnel in the team, while the rest are Chichi’s friends.
Of those who had been chosen to be the last 30, only these three attend practice. Once the next match too, is lost and they too, are removed, the team will only have Chichi and his friends. The Army’s rugger team that was built with so much commitment will see its end. In the end, the Army will become a victim of the Rajapaksa sons’ conspiracy.
