JAKARTA - Deputy Chairperson of the Purworejo PDIP DPC Albertus Sumbogo declared support for Central Java (Central Java) Governor Ganjar Pranowo to run in the 2024 Presidential Election (Pilpres). He also formed a volunteer group named the National Secretary (Seknas) Ganjar.

As a result of this support, Central Java (Central Java) DPD Chairman Bambang Wuryanto alias Bambang Pacul called him a boar or wild boar. This is because Albertus is considered not to have complied with the direction of PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri so that PDIP cadres do not discuss the 2024 presidential election.

Responding to the term wild boar, Albertus admitted he was concerned and did not accept the label. He also questioned Bambang Pacul's excessive attitude in responding to the declaration of the Ganjar National Secretariat.

"I'm just concerned, I really don't accept it. I'm concerned, how come it's like that," said Albertus, Tuesday, October 12.

Despite being insulted by Bambang, Albertus admitted that his party was even more enthusiastic to support Ganjar. According to him, the conflict was only due to differences in perceptions about party procedures.

"Actually, it's just a matter of differences in perception, differences in party procedures, but my friends want to voice that, they are even more intimidated, the more enthusiastic they are," he explained.

In fact, said Albertus, 16 sub-districts in Purworejo Regency have been included in the Ganjar National Secretariat. He also targets support to reach all Purworejo districts by the end of 2021.

He also admitted that he was surprised that as of today there have been so many who have registered and formed WhatsApp groups to join in supporting Ganjar.

"I am still organizing the DPC National Secretariat, today we have added a lot of supporters, some friends who knew last joined, today I am busy receiving them through WA groups, how many groups are at the sub-district level. Some of my friends are even wider,” said Albertus.
