Presidential candidate number 3 Ganjar Pranowo said that he would not give positions to volunteers who support him and vice presidential candidate Mahfud Md if he was elected in the 2024 presidential election.

"I'm sorry, if there are those in the front row, back, left, right, maybe they won't be commissioners. Sorry, you are working amazingly, you have a lot of votes, but you probably won't be in the cabinet," said Ganjar when giving a speech at the conference event with the exponent, alumnus, and activist of the Indonesian National Student Movement (GMNI) in Jakarta as reported by ANTARA, Thursday, December 28.

Therefore, the former Governor of Central Java for two terms hopes that the volunteers who support him are true volunteers.

"I really hope that when the victory occurs you will trust us (Ganjar-Mahfud). So I really hope that you will be sincerity, ladies and gentlemen, for us to make decisions black and white," he said.

Meanwhile, Ganjar said he was happy with the support from the exponents, alumni, and GMNI activists for himself and Mahfud.

"Of course today we are happy because friends from GMNI, GMNI alumni gathered and they together with volunteers gave me support, thank you. They are ready to move with the people with what I told you earlier," he said.

However, Ganjar took the time to pray at the event to make it easier to face the 2024 presidential election contestation.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm telling you this because today I'm trying to feel it. O Allah, is this a historical call for me? If you answer this, it's easy, give your instructions. Otherwise, give your best and God willing, the meeting will be the best meeting," said Ganjar.
