JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan removed the Mayor of Central Jakarta Bayu Megantara and Head of the Environment Agency Andono Warih from their respective posts.
The head of the DKI Regional Civil Service Agency (BKD) said that this was because Bayu and Andono were proven to have violated provisions for facilitating a crowd event organized by Rizieq Shihab in Petamburan some time ago.
"This removal is based on the results of the DKI Jakarta Inspectorate audit which assessed that the two of them had been negligent and neglected by not obeying the direction and instructions from the Governor," said Chaidir in his statement, Friday, November 28.
The inspection of Bayu and Andono was carried out by the DKI Inspectorate based on Anies' instructions. During the inspection, the DKI Inspectorate did not only examine Bayu and Andono.
The inspectorate also examined the Head of Tanah Abang Sub-district Muhammad Yassin, Head of Petamburan Village Setiyanto, Head of the Sanitation Management Division of the Environment and Forestry Service, Edy Mulyanto, Head of the LH Office, Central Jakarta Marsigit, and Head of the Cleanliness Control Section of the LH Service Aldi Jansen.
In the results of this examination, Anies actually gave directions to anticipate activities that could potentially create crowds at the Prophet's birthday and the wedding in Petamburan on 14 November.
Andono said, all stated that they understood the governor's direction, but it was found that in the field the directive was not implemented properly.
"One of the 5 points of direction is related to the prohibition of lending provincial government facilities or facilitating citizen activities which are mass gathering," he said.
During the crowd activity in Petamburan on November 14, the ranks of the sub-districts, sub-districts and the Environment Agency were found to be lending facilities belonging to the provincial government for mass gathering activities.
Andono explained, from the results of the examination it was found that there had been negligence in carrying out orders.
"The problem is not just a matter of borrowing, but about five clear and firm written directions from superiors that have not been implemented properly. They acknowledge and are subject to sanctions in accordance with existing provisions," he said.
Based on the results of the DKI Inspectorate audit, both of them were removed from their positions starting on November 24. However, on the same day, Tuesday, November 24, DKI Jakarta Deputy Governor Ahmad Riza Patria admitted that there had not been any dismissal of DKI officials.
"Not that far (removal). So we are still evaluating among our internals. Our weaknesses, our weaknesses, we will evaluate, we will fix," said DKI Deputy Governor Ahmad Riza Patria at the City Hall of DKI, Central Jakarta, Tuesday, 24 November.
