JAKARTA - General Chairperson of the Nahdlatul Ulama (PBNU) Executive Board KH. Yahya Cholil Staquf reminded all parties not to use the call "align people's blood" during the 2024 election contestation period. "So we hope that future elections will be more relaxed, elections will not use 'baper-baper', and will not use 'align people's blood'," said Yahya Cholil Staquf in Jakarta, Wednesday, January 4, confiscated by Antara. The holding of a five-year democratic party, he said, relaxed without any invitation that had a split tone. According to him, in Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) itself, the only interest of NU in Indonesian politics is the safety of the nation and state. "This has become the official institutional decision of the congress results that must be followed by all Nahdlatul Ulama residents," he said.

Related to that, Cholil said PBNU would implement a more real strategy by making constructive and positive donations in the national political dynamics during the general election period. "We are in this case trying to realize a democratic tradition that is more rational and moral. Rational means that you don't have to play identity sentiments and you don't have to play primordial sentiment," he said.

He conveyed this after receiving a visit from the Chairman and members of the General Election Commission (KPU) who visited the PBNU office, on Wednesday, January 4, 2023. KPU visited PBNU to build support for the success of holding the 2024 General Election.

"Today, Wednesday, January 4, 2023, the KPU visited the friendly audience with the PBNU leadership to build support for holding the 2024 General Election," said KPU chairman Hasyim Asy'ari.
