Abthul Wazeeth takes oath as SLMC’s newest National List MP

written by MIAP Source

July 08, Colombo (LNW): Earlier today (08), Mohamed Sheriff Abthul Wazeeth was officially sworn in as a Member of Parliament representing the Sri Lanka Muslim Congress (SLMC) through the National List.

The oath of office was administered by the Speaker of Parliament, Dr Jagath Wickramaratne.

Wazeeth assumes the seat left vacant following the resignation of former SLMC National List MP, Muhammathu Saali Naleem. Naleem relinquished his position in March this year in order to contest the upcoming 2025 Local Government Election, with intentions to represent the Eravur Urban Council—a move that signals his continued involvement in grassroots-level governance.

The Election Commission of Sri Lanka confirmed Wazeeth’s appointment through an official Gazette, issued after the SLMC General Secretary formally submitted his name for consideration. The process followed standard constitutional procedures governing the replacement of National List MPs.
