Bakal calon wakil presiden Gibran Rakabuming Raka meminta agar para pendukungnya tidak mudah baperan. Ia meminta para pendukung maupun relawannya untuk menghadapi segala pernyataan negatif dan fitnah dengan smile.

"Ladies and gentlemen, just stay short from me. Right now, there are many attacks, slander, cynicism, and negative'statement', just smile, don't fight it, just smile," said Gibran while consolidating the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM) in Bandarlampung, Saturday.

Gibran reminded all his supporters to work hard to win the 2024 Presidential Election even though a number of survey institutions released Prabowo-Gibran with high numbers.

"If you see or read the release from the survey institute, if it's bad, it means you have to work hard again, if it's good, but a number of surveys are really good, yes we have to work hard too," he said.

Gibran said this fight was very short, but once the Mayor of Surakarta, Central Java, still believes in the spirit of his supporters that Prabowo-Gibran will win one round.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am sure we can win 1 round. We will continue to monitor the figures, continue to monitor the movement of grassroots below, will continue to socialize the vision, mission, and program Prabowo-Gibran and ensure that in Lampung the numbers are the highest," he said.

However, he asked not to be careless and continue to widen the winning distance.

"Keep working hard, keep going to the residents, 'door to door', once again we all here want to win one round," he said.

Meanwhile, the chairman of the Gerindra Lampung Party DPD Rahmat Mirzani Djausal said that the people of Lampung's response to the presence of the vice president Gibran Rakabuming Raka was quite extraordinary.

"Earlier, it can be seen from the market and here, the welcome is extraordinary, so we are optimistic that we can win the 2024 presidential election one round as said by Mas Gibran," he said.
