JAKARTA - Deputy Secretary General of the National Awakening Party (PKB) Syaiful Huda responded to the inauguration of the Secretary General of PBNU Saifullah Yusuf or Gus Ipul as minister of social affairs (mensos) replacing Tri Rismaharini. PKB, said Syaiful, is looking forward to Gus Ipul's performance and breakthrough within 39 days of becoming Social Minister.
"Just wait, Gus Ipul's 39-day performance," said Syaiful at the DPR Senayan building, Jakarta, Wednesday, September 11.
Syaiful assessed that the appointment of Gus Ipul as minister was President Joko Widodo's prerogative. According to him, this prerogative cannot be limited to the length of work for cabinet ministers.
"Once again, that is the prerogative of the president, even though there are only 39 days left. Prerogative authority cannot be limited, there is only one day left, the prerogative of the president," he said.
Syaiful also emphasized that Gus Ipul's inauguration as a minister had nothing to do with the PKB which recently had a conflict with PBNU. According to him, the ministerial issue is the authority of President Jokowi.
"Regarding the appointment of Gus Ipul as minister, it is the president's business and once it has nothing to do with the MOVEment of PBNU and PKB. Especially in the congress, there was a Bali independence declaration that said PKB went public, not related. PKB wants to work and be part of all citizens," concluded Syaiful.
