Irwan Prayitno ends his position as Governor of West Sumatra, Friday 12 February (ANTARA)

PADANG - Irwan Prayitno ended his position as Governor of West Sumatra. Irwan will then serve on four major campuses in Indonesia.

"Returning to the world of campus. Teaching at the University of Muhammadiyah Jakarta (UMJ), Andalas University (Unand) Padang, Padang State University (UNP) and Adzkia University are in process," he said as quoted by Antara, Thursday, February 11.

Irwan Prayitno is a Professor of the Faculty of Economics and Business, UMJ. He will teach for S1 and S2 at the campus.

At Andalas University, Irwan is also listed as a teacher, companion and examiner at the Faculty of Medicine. There have been many students who have been assisted to graduate from S3.

Irwan was also awarded the title of Extraordinary Professor at the UNP Faculty of Education. The inauguration will take place on Monday, February 15th.

"So at UNP I will also teach," he said.

In addition, he is also working on the establishment of Azkia University, an educational institution that he has raised in West Sumatra.

"Hopefully it will be approved in the near future. If so, I will be the first rector there," he said.

Thus, even though he is no longer governor, Irwan Prayitno will still dedicate most of his time to serve West Sumatra as an educator, chancellor and extraordinary professor.

Irwan Prayitno served as governor of West Sumatra for two terms starting from February 2010.

Meanwhile, Deputy Governor of West Sumatra Nasrul Abit said he was still waiting for the results of the Election dispute at the Constitutional Court.

"Whatever the result is a line from the Almighty. I accept it sincerely. If I lose in the Constitutional Court, I want to take a break before deciding what to do next," he said.

MK Decides Fate of West Sumatra Governor Election Lawsuit Next Week

Meanwhile, Chairman of the General Election Commission (KPU) of West Sumatra Province (West Sumatra) Yanuk Sri Mulyani said the Indonesian Constitutional Court (MK) is still processing the trial of the West Sumatra Pilgub Election Result Dispute (PHPU) dispute trial and is scheduled to be decided next week.

"Whether the trial will be continued or terminated, of course there will be two possibilities. Announcement of the verdict of the trial itself will be held between February 15-16," said Yanuk.

According to him, if the Constitutional Court's decision states that the trial will be continued, it will continue with the agenda of examining witnesses.

"If the verdict continues again, it means we are preparing witnesses, because evidence has been registered," he also said.

According to him, witnesses are required to provide a number of statements, and vice versa if the Court decides the trial is terminated, it means that the petition from the petitioner is rejected or dismissal.

"If for example based on the decision on 15-16 later it turns out to be dismissal, it means that after that the KPU will carry out the next stage, namely determining the elected candidate," he also said.

KPU, according to him, will be given no later than five days to determine the elected candidate pair if the Court rejects the lawsuit.

He hoped that the Constitutional Court would accommodate what was conveyed by the KPU in the answer, because in that answer, the KPU explained that it was related to the authority of the Court and others.

"The West Sumatra KPU as the organizer is optimistic that what the West Sumatra KPU is doing is in accordance with existing regulations. We are optimistic about our work," he said.

The West Sumatra KPU as the respondent faced two requests from the candidate pair for governor and deputy governor candidate number 2 Nasrul Abit-Indra Catri, and serial number 1 Mulyadi-Ali Mukhni.
