JAKARTA - The United Development Party (PPP) assesses that the Mayor of Solo, Gibran Rakabuming Raka, has the opportunity to run as a candidate for governor (cagub) of DKI Jakarta and the Central Java cagub in the upcoming 2024 Election. However, Gibran must first prove his performance in Solo. "Of course Mas Gibran must first prove his performance in Solo," said Chairman of the DPP PPP Ahmad Baidowi (Awiek) when contacted by VOI, Tuesday, January 24. According to Awiek, proof of performance in Solo is the capital for Gibran to run for the 2024 gubernatorial election, either DKI Jakarta or Central Java. So that President Joko Widodo's eldest son will be completely ready if assigned to the party. "I think he has capital if he can and is successful Solo's dream to advance to the governor election, either in DKI or Central Java," he explained. "Until today there is no discourse, whether he wants to be there. But at least prove it by leading in Solo," continued Awiek. If he is able to lead the city of Solo, he added, then Gibran has the provision to participate in the contestation in the 2024 Pilkada. "If the success of the Solo city dream then it becomes a big capital for Mas Gibran to advance in the governor election," said Awiek.
Previously, Solo Mayor Gibran Rakabuming Raka admitted that he was ready if assigned by PDIP Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri to run in the 2024 gubernatorial election. Although, he emphasized that he did not have the ambition to participate in the election contestation for the provincial level.
"I'm ready, if there is an assignment. That doesn't mean I want to be governor (nominate myself as governor), no. I'm waiting for orders," said Gibran in Solo Safari, Friday, January 20.
"Guab kui opo to. Focus on Solo first, later" he added.
