Declared This Afternoon, Secretary General Of Golkar Ngaku Doesn't Know The Figure Of Suswono Who Accompanied Ridwan Kamil

JAKARTA - Secretary General of the Golkar Party, Lodewijk F Paulus admitted that he did not know about the figure of Suswono who would be declared with Ridwan Kamil as the cagub and cawagub pair in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. Lodewijk also did not know whether the decision to choose Suswono as the cagub was the will of Ridwan Kamil or the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM). "I don't know. Because just last night I opened up, oh it turns out that S is there. Oh Pak Suswono turned out to be a former Minister of Agriculture. Then Pak Suswono turned out to be a PKS cadre. Yes, frankly, just last night we knew that. But I didn't expect S either," said Lodewijk at the Sultan Hotel, Jakarta, August 19. Lodewijk also admitted that he did not know the process of the conversation at KIM until he appointed Suswono as the cawagub companion to RK. He said the reason for the support would be known after the KIM Plus meeting which was held before the official declaration. "That's the problem, I also don't know. So like this, the process is going fast. The initials are only S. Only S, right? After hearing this, I just found out. The S, maybe the S has been opened, but I honestly don't know. We are also busy preparing National Conference. So I'm not following. But the point is, it turns out that Pak Suwono," he said. It is known that the Forward Indonesia Coalition together with other political parties that are members of KIM Plus will officially declare the Ridwan Kamil-Suswono pair as the cagub and cawagub in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. The declaration will be made at 14.30 WIB at the Sultan Hotel, Jakarta.

It was noted that there were 12 political parties that supported this candidate, namely Gerindra, PAN, Golkar Democrats, PKS, PKB, PPP, NasDem, PSI, Perindo, Garuda and Gelora.
