Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs (Menko Polhukam) Mahfud MD shared his funny experience of not recognizing his grandson as minister. He uploaded this story through his Twitter account, @mohmahfudmd.

While uploading a photo of his two grandchildren, Mahfud said, one of them had joined the ranks with residents to welcome the arrival of a minister. This incident was not explained when but happened in Probolinggo.

"In a village in Probolinggo, Majda, my parents joined people in the village, crowding on the side of the road," Mahfud tweeted as quoted on Saturday, February 18.

Mahfud admitted that he saw his grandson lined up and invited him home. However, the grandson did not want to because he wanted to see the minister coming to the area.

"When I got out of the car I got Majda to take him home. Eh, he didn't want to be invited home," said the former Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court (MK).

"The ticket, 'I want to watch the minister will come'," wrote Mahfud imitating his grandson's reason for not wanting to be invited home.

From that incident, Mahfud finally found out that his grandson did not realize that he was a minister. He then closed his tweet with a laughing emoticon.

"In response, he did not know that his grandfather was the minister," said Mahfud.
