JAKARTA - There was an internal polemic following the uninvited governor of Central Java Ganjar Pranowo in the briefing of Puan Maharani. Ganjar Pranowo is considered too ambitious to be a capres 2024.
"Not invited! (Ganjar Pranowo, red) 'wis kemajon' (delay), 'yen kowe pinter, ojo keminter' (if you are smart, do not be smart-red)," said Chairman of the DPP PDI Struggle for Election Winner and Chairman of DPD PDIP Jateng Bambang Wuryanto quoted Antara, Sunday, May 23.
In a written statement, DPD PDIP Jateng blatantly mentions Ganjar Pranowo who is also the Governor of Central Java, too ambitious to run in the 2024 presidential election so as to abandon the party norm.
According to Bambang, DPD PDIP Jateng has actually given a signal if Ganjar's attitude that is too ambitious with the office of president is not good.
On the one hand, there has been no instruction from Chairman Umun Megawati Soekarnoputri, while on the other hand it is not good for the harmony of the party that must be perpendicular to the orders of the chairman.
"This is attributed to the high intensity of Ganjar on social media and mass media, even Ganjar until willing to be a 'host' on his youtube, when the same thing is not done by other PDIP cadres who also have the potential to 'nyapres'" he said.
According to him, other PDIP cadres were not able to do the same, but did not dare because they had not received the orders of the chairman.
"'Wis not code sik. Why soyo mblandang, yes no rodo atos'. I was bullied on social media, yes bully only, I don't have to take care of my image,'' she said.
This man who is familiarly called Bambang Pacul once again reminded that electability at this time can not be used as a benchmark in the real election battle.
Electability is currently only boosted from the news and social media. It's easy to beat in real combat.
"This was conveyed not as a reprimand for Ganjar who is also a cadre of PDIP. This is not a reprimand, because he feels higher than us (DPD PDIP Jateng). He felt that he could reprimand only Mrs. (Chairman Megawati Soekarnoputri)," he said.
When asked if Ganjar Pranowo had stated publicly that he would run for president, Bambang said, "If he answers, I will not say 'nyapres'. Yes if he talks at the branch level of the party, yes please, but if with political people, yes must have understood where to go," he said.
