DENPASAR - Former Deputy Chairperson of the Nahdlatul Ulama (PBNU) Executive Board Nusron Wahid, opened his voice regarding the internal turmoil that was happening at PBNU.

The general chairman of PBNU, Yahya Cholil Staquf, or Gus Yahya was urged to resign from his position. But recently Gus Yahya made sure to continue his leadership.

"We pray, may Allah protect us all, and we pray, hopefully the storm will pass. That's all," said Nusron in Denpasar, Tuesday, November 25.

Previously, news circulated of the PBNU Sharia daily meeting urging Yahya Cholil Staquf to resign from the chairman of PBNU within three days of receiving the minutes. If within that deadline he did not resign, Syuriah would dismiss him.

The mistake, signed by Rais Aam PBNU Miftachul Akhyar, was decided in a meeting attended by 37 Sharia Daily Managers at the Aston City Hotel Jakarta on November 20, 2025.

"The deliberation between Rais Aam and two Deputy Rais Aam decided: KH Yahya Cholil Staquf must resign from the position of General Chairperson of the Nahdlatul Ulama Executive Board within 3 (three) days from the receipt of the decision of the PBNU Syuriyah Daily Meeting," wrote the decision points in the minutes.

"If within 3 (three) days he does not resign, the PBNU Syuriyah Daily Meeting has decided to dismiss KH Yahya Cholil Staquf as General Chair of the Nahdlatul Ulama Executive Board," he continued.
