BANDAR LAMPUNG - Bawaslu found that 1,402 socialization props (APS) participating in the 2024 General Election were installed at a number of points in Bandar Lampung in violation of the provisions of the installation.

"On this finding, we have written to three political parties to send their APS themselves who are categorized as violating," said Head of Bawaslu Bandar Lampung Apriliwanda, in Bandar Lampung, Wednesday, September 13, quoted by Antara.

According to him, APS is not allowed to be installed such as on electricity poles and trees. APS also, he continued, should not smell like a campaign, or an invitation because now election participants have not been allowed to install campaign props (APK).

"Therefore, we are coordinating with the Bandarlampung City Satpol PP to record and control APS that violates this city," he said.

Head of Bandarlampung Pol PP Ahmad Nurizki said that controlling banners and banners that damage the beauty of the city will be immediately removed, according to regional regulation (Perda) No. 1 of 2018 concerning public peace and public order.

"We don't see the content and shape, when it's the wrong place, including the one with the retribution, it's put in order," he said.

Regarding the schedule for controlling APS or APK for election participants, based on Bawaslu records, there are 1,402 points spread across the city, his party will coordinate with the leadership. "Then in controlling it will also continue to coordinate with Bawaslu so that in the future there will be no problems," he said.
