JAKARTA - Chairman of Jokowi Mania (JoMan) Immanuel Ebenezer alias Noel is still hot after being 'kicked' by SOE Minister Erick Thohir from his position as an independent commissioner of PT Mega Eltra.

Noel's dismissal was said to be due to his involvement as a witness for the defendant in the Munarman terrorism case.

For this dismissal, Noel said that the figure of Erick Thohir was not a proper leader in the upcoming 2024 presidential election because he did not understand democracy.

"Good leaders should understand democracy because they cannot see the issue subjectively, they must be objective. I see that this cannot be typical of Erick Thohir's entry into the democratic space in the upcoming presidential election. My job is to explain to the public this person is not worthy of I will enter the 2024 contest later because this person is also involved in stigmatizing myself as a terrorist," said Noel on the JPNN.COM Youtube channel quoted on Monday, May 9.

Noel said that until now he has not been proven to be involved in terrorism. Judging from the track record, Noel admits to being a party that strongly opposes HTI, including the ideology of the caliphate that is promoted.

"I am a person who opposes the caliphate because I am a person who agrees that Pancasila is the best of the worst ideologies," said Noel.

Noel's statement clearly invited a strong reaction from supporters of Erick Thohir. One of them is social media activist Chusnul Chotimah. According to Chusnul, Noel's figure is the same as several senior BUMN officials who were fired before.

Call it Refly Harun, Said Didu or Rizal Ramli who now appear as critics of the Joko Widodo-Ma'ruf Amin government. Whereas previously, Noel also supported Erick Thohir who was paired with Ganjar Pranowo in the presidential election.

"Initially, he shouted that he agreed to support Ganjar-Erick in the 2024 presidential election, after he was fired from the BUMN commissioner, Erick Thohir shouted that he was not worthy to take part in the 2024 presidential election,"

"Poor, he looks really hurt. Very similar to Rizal Ramli, Said Didu et al. The more you refuse, the more proves he is worthy," Chusnul quipped.
