BANDAR LAMPUNG - PKS President Ahmad Syaikhu said that Lampung Province is one of the targets for the granary area for presidential candidate Anies Rasyid Baswedan in the 2024 Presidential Election (Pilpres).

"For Lampung's national target, this province is part of the voice barn for Mr. Anies," said Ahmad Syaikhu, in Bandar Lampung as reported by ANTARA, Saturday, August 12.

He emphasized that his party was very serious about Anies Baswedan's victory in Lampung Province, including PKS' victory.

"We in Lampung are consolidating the structure at the DPW and DPC in the regions. With this we want to try to realize the PKS targets that have been mandated in the 5th national meeting in 2020," he said.

Meanwhile, Chairman of the PKS Lampung DPW Ahmad Mufti Salim said that if the 2024 Presidential Election (Pilpres) was filled with three presidential candidates, the vote target for Anies proposed by PKS was 60 percent in this province.

"The 60 percent target is a common target, but we will first coordinate this with the Democrats and NasDem as a coalition party. We have agreed or added 60 percent. But we want PKS to be the favorite voter for Anies' vote," he said.

However, he continued, if in the future only two candidates will fight for the presidential election, of course the vote target in Lampung will be increased because requests from the vote achievement center in this province are requested above the national level.

"Based on the survey results, there are several areas where Anies' votes are lost, then to fulfill his voice, Lampung, which we calculate will win for Anies, then the win must be big," he said.
