Jokowi Inaugurates The Head Of The IKN Authority Next Week, Not From A Political Party

JAKARTA - President Joko Widodo will soon announce the name of the Head of the National Capital Authority (IKN) Nusantara. Appointments will be made next week.

"As soon as possible, maybe next week we will inaugurate," said Jokowi after inaugurating the NasDem Tower in Gondangdia, Menteng, Central Jakarta, Tuesday, February 22.

Jokowi said that the candidate for the head of the IKN authority in North Penajam Paser, East Kalimantan, would be filled with someone who was not from a political party.

"Non-political parties," he said.

However, Jokowi did not clearly mention the names of the candidates for the head of the IKN authority body who were already in his pocket.

It is known, some time ago there was a lot of discussion about the names that Jokowi had mentioned in 2020. Recently, there has been an issue of the head of the IKN authority who is concurrently a minister.
