SURABAYA - The eldest son of the Mayor of Surabaya Tri Rismaharini, Fuad Benardi, protested against the campaign props (APK) in the form of banners and billboards depicting his mother side by side with the candidate for Mayor of Surabaya serial number 2 Machfud Arifin (MA). These billboards are circulating in a number of areas in the city of Surabaya, East Java.

"Mother does not wish to have her photo and name posted on a billboard campaigning for candidates other than candidate pairs Eri Cahyadi and Armuji," said Fuad Benardi, in Surabaya, quoted by Antara, Tuesday, December 1.

On banners and billboards circulating that read "Defend Risma, Win MA (Machfud Arifin)", there is also "MA is able to continue Risma".

According to him, the photo posting was clearly false information framing as if Risma was supporting Machfud Arifin, even though it was clear that Risma, who is the Chair of the PDI-P DPP, fully supports the PDIP-supported pair Eri and Armudji.

Therefore, Fuad asked the candidate support team who posted a photo of Risma without permission to be sporty.

"Since the beginning, the candidate always slandered Mrs. Risma and the construction of the City of Surabaya. After seeing this as a blunder, because in fact Mrs. Risma was loved by the people, they tried to shift the issue as if linking Mrs. Risma with them, by posting a photo. on billboards and campaign materials, "said Fuad.

"It should be sportsmanship, don't just put up a photo of Mrs. Risma without asking permission. Politics does not justify any means to gain power," said Fuad.
