Former Jokowi's Deputy In Solo: The One Who Ordered Fajar To Reject Ganjar Pranowo's Aid Is Not Human

JAKARTA - The chairman of the Surakarta PDIP DPC, FX Hadi Rudyatmo, suspects that someone has intervened so that Fajar Nugroho, deputy chairman of the PAC PDIP Temanggung, takes action to return all the assistance given by the Governor of Central Java, Ganjar Pranowo. The former deputy mayor of Solo during the Joko Widodo era strongly criticized those suspected of pressuring Fajar.

Rudy - as he is familiarly called - even asked the PDI-P General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri or the PDIP DPP to intervene to respond to this issue. Moreover, Ganjar is a PDIP cadre who was given a mandate by Megawati to be able to help all residents of Central Java.

"General Chairman or DPP must give sanctions to those who intervene and intimidate the residents. It's a pity, even though he really needs it," said Rudy, Thursday, January 13.

Rudy is sure that none of the PDIP cadres have that thought. According to him, Megawati outlined PDIP as a party formed as a means of struggle to help many people.

"So if there are people who want to be prospered by the governor by repairing their houses and telling them to refuse, they're not humans," he quipped.

The former mayor of Surakarta, before Gibran Rakabuming, assessed that Ganjar Pranowo's provision of assistance should be questioned. Ganjar is a governor who was given orders to help all residents of Central Java.

"If you help others, let alone help PDIP cadres, don't stop them, he helps as governor, helps his people," quipped FX Rudy.

"So if someone gets in the way like that, the DPD suppresses the DPC, the DPC suppresses the aided, God doesn't sleep," he criticized again.

Whoever intervenes, Rudy strikes back. He said Ganjar was helping Fajar's house be repaired so that it became habitable.

"If they can do the same thing, that's okay," he said.

"I don't like Mr. Ganjar, it's okay, but don't sacrifice the party. Ganjar is a PDIP cadre, so to help anyone, he is assigned by the PDIP General Chairman to help the community," he continued.

Previously, Fajar Nugroho returned assistance from Governor Ganjar Pranowo through officers at the Mungseng Village Office, Temanggung Regency. This return of assistance after being crowded on social media.

"I returned the aid because the gift was uploaded and crowded on social media," Fajar said in Temanggung as reported by Antara, Wednesday, January 12.

The aid returned in a black plastic bag in the form of children's toys and a cell phone. The aid was given by Ganjar on Sunday, January 9 at Fajar Nugroho's house.

"If the aid is not uploaded on social media, we will accept it," Fajar said after handing over the aid. The aid from Ganjar was received by one of the village officials.

Fajar, who is also the deputy chairman of the PAC PDI Perjuangan Temanggung, admitted that he was forced to return the aid through the village office because he did not know how to return it.

By uploading the donation, he said, it is suspected that his party was used for imaging because it was uploaded on several social media, such as YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook.

"When Mr. Ganjar came, he also promised to provide other assistance. However, before it was implemented, we returned the aid in the form of children's toys and cellphones," he said.
