From Sragen, President Jokowi, Governor Ganjar Pranowo and their entourage went to Grobogan to visit Purwodadi Market and SD N 3 Nglinduk. Residents waiting for Jokowi's arrival cheered when the group arrived.

Jokowi and Ganjar and their entourage went straight to the elementary school yard located in Gabus Village, Tlogotirto District, Grobogan. Ganjar had time to greet vaccination participants at other points who followed virtually.

Ganjar had advised all school residents to remain disciplined in health protocols. Even though they have been vaccinated, Ganjar continued, masks must still be worn when doing activities.

“I craned and entrusted the process to be guarded. The teacher who teaches in class, please keep wearing the mask, don't worry, you're all right. Thank you," said Ganjar.

Hundreds of residents who gathered around the elementary school kept calling the names of Jokowi and Ganjar. Before leaving school and continuing with activities, Jokowi had approached the residents.

At that moment, Ganjar who was behind Jokowi stole the attention. Residents who were standing in the middle of the rice fields because they couldn't get close, called out Ganjar's name.

"Pak Ganjar, Kaose sir," shouted a resident.
