The Names Of Raffi Ahmad, Yovie Widianto, And Dudung Abdurachman Cancel Announced As Deputy Ministers In Prabowo Cabinet
JAKARTA - At the official announcement of the arrangement of ministers and deputy ministers of the Red and White Cabinet delivered by President Prabowo Subianto at the Merdeka Palace, Sunday, October 20 evening, the names who had been summoned at Kertanegara's residence and became public attention, such as Raffi Ahmad and Yovie Widianto, were not announced as Deputy Ministers. This is a big question mark considering that previously the two names were widely referred to as Deputy Ministerial Candidates in the Prabowo administration.
Raffi Ahmad, who is known as a multitalented artist and entrepreneur, was rumored to be occupying an important position in the government. He has even held several meetings with Prabowo. Likewise with well-known musician Yovie Widianto, who is rumored to be joining the ranks of Deputy Ministers in the creative or tourism sector.
However, until the official announcement took place, neither Raffi nor Yovie were summoned to fill the position of Deputy Minister. This decision made the public wonder, especially when both were considered figures who had great potential in bringing new perspectives in the government, especially in the creative industry and tourism.
Apart from Raffi and Yovie, the name of General TNI (Ret.) Dudung Abdurachman, who was previously said to be filling the position of Deputy Minister in the security sector, was also not announced. The cancellation of Dudung's announcement as Deputy Minister further strengthens speculation that there was a sudden change in the composition of the Red and White Cabinet, but until now, there has been no official explanation regarding the reason for Dudung's cancellation.
Until now, both Raffi Ahmad, Yovie Widianto, and Dudung Abdurachman have not yet responded to the cancellation of their announcement as Deputy Ministers.
With the absence of these names in an official announcement, the public is now waiting to see if there will be additional announcements regarding the Deputy Minister in the future.
