MEDAN - PDI Perjuangan (PDIP) Chairman Megawati Soekarnoputri decided to fire Akhyar Nasution from his party membership. Akhyar is considered to be disciplinary.
Akhyar's dismissal was stated in the PDIP DPP Decree number 29-A / KPTS-DPD / DPP / VIII / 2020, regarding adjustments to the structure and composition of the PDI Perjuangan DPD in North Sumatra Province for the 2019-2024 term of service. This letter was signed by Megawati and PDIP Secretary General Hasto Kristiyanto on August 3.
The point of dismissal of Akhyar, who is currently the Acting Mayor of Medan, is listed in point 9. "PDI Perjuangan DPP decision letter number 44 / KTPS / DPP / VIII / 2020, dated 1 August 2020 regarding the dismissal of Ir Akhyar Nasution from the PDI Perjuangan membership," said points in the decree effective from August 1.
"Yes, it is true, his dismissal was listed in point 9 of the decree," said Deputy Chairman of the PDI-P DPD, Aswan Jaya when confirmed by VOI, Sunday, August 9.
Aswan said Akhyar's disobedience to party decisions was the main reason for the dismissal. Akhyar is known to have joined the Democrats to gain support for the Medan Pilkada when the PDIP was leaning towards Bobby Nasution as a candidate for mayor.
"He took disciplinary action," he said.
Regarding the dismissal, Aswan said Akhyar had fulfilled all of his obligations to the PDIP. He is sure that Akhyar's dismissal will have no impact on PDIP cadres at the grassroots.
"Hopefully there will be no polemic at the lower level. Cadres have expressed loyalty to the leadership. The consolidation is now ongoing," he hoped.
In addition, the decree stated that Djarot Saiful Hidayat officially served as the chairman of the DPD PDIP North Sumatra definitively. Djarot replaces Japorman Saragih who resigned for family reasons.
Meanwhile, Akhyar Nasution initially served as Deputy Chair of the Organization Division. The position once occupied by Akhyar was replaced by Penyabar Nakhe.
