Chairman of the Electoral Commission (KPU) of Mukomuko Regency, Deny Setiabudi, has declared his resignation in the midst of the 2024 Pilkada stage. Chairman of the KPU Mukomuko Regency for the period 2023-2028 Deny Setiabudi resigned from his position due to the reasons for heart disease he suffered. "Actually, it's been a long time, from the start I told the post-election that I actually had a disease so I couldn't carry out my maximum electoral duties," said Chairman of the KPU Mukomuko Regency, Deny Setiabudi in a press release in Mukomuko, Bengkulu, Monday, May 27, which was confiscated by Antara. The resignation of the Chairman of the KPU Mukomuko Regency was followed by holding a plenary meeting to replace the Chairperson of the KPU for 2023-2028 Regency. In a plenary meeting attended by five commissioners of the KPU, Mukomuko Regency, Deny Setiabudi, Misbahul Amri, Endang Surya Bakti, Efra, and Marjono, the chairman of the Technical Foreign Exchange, Marjono, as a substitute for the chairman of the KPU Mukomuko by acclamation. While waiting for the decree to change the definitive KPU chairman Mukomuko, the plenary meeting appointed KPU Commissioner Mukomuko Misbahul Amri as the daily executor. Deny Setiabudi said that he had undergone several medical examinations at the hospital and it turned out that there were symptoms of the heart and from that result the doctor asked him to rest so that he would recover in the future. "I also regularly and periodically do'medical check-ups' in Bengkulu so it takes time because I have to go to Bengkulu once a week," he said.

With this condition, he said, so there was work in the implementation of the 2024 Pilkada which was neglected. Deny said that his party had also coordinated with the leadership in Bengkulu and the advice he received to take a break. He also hopes that this change can bring the Mukomuko Regency KPU to a better direction.
