In the 2009-2014 period, Effendi served in Commission VII in charge of mineral resources and the environment. Meanwhile, he is currently assigned to Commission I by in charge of abroad, informatics and defense.

Effendi's popularity at that time skyrocketed because she was often a resource person at various political talk shows on television, especially related to economic and political issues. Even his popularity began to creep when he ran for North Sumatra Governor candidate for the 2013-2018 period.

At that time Effendi was paired with Jumiran Abdi. Unfortunately he lost to his opponent, Gatot Pujo Nugroho who was paired with Tengku Erry Nuradi. At that time he was only able to earn 24.34 percent of the vote.

Based on the search, Effendi Simbolon was linked with the SKK Migas mafia network case in 2014. At that time, the Director of PT Surya Parna Niaga Artha Merish Simbolon was named a suspect. In fact, at that time several parties urged the KPK to participate in examining Effendi Simbolon related to the case.

In addition, Effendi is suspected of accepting bribes from Didi Dwi Nugroho, Head of the Finance Bureau of the Ministry of Energy, Mineral Resources (ESDM) who became accused of being corrupt who received USD 2,500 related to THR and the 2013 Revised State Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBN-P 2013).

Currently Effendi Simbolon is receiving the spotlight after saying the disharmony of relations between the TNI Commander General Andika Perkasa and Army Chief of Staff General Dudung Abdurachman. He made this statement when Affandi and Andika were in a working meeting on Monday, September 6, 2022. Meanwhile, Dudung was not present on the grounds of checking the soldiers.

He then commented on Dudung's absence. According to him, it has become a public secret, namely in every agenda attended by the Commander in Chief, there is no Army Chief of Staff.

According to him, he had received information regarding the relationship between Andika and Dudung for a long time, even since the two were sworn in as TNI officials.

"We have received information for quite a long time from their time, both Mr. Andika as commander in chief and Mr. Dudung as Army Chief of Staff. Maybe so far, for us, it's something that usually has differences, views, opinions, but then it feels that over time it has become a serious matter regarding the impact of performance rather than the TNI itself," said Effendi when met at the Parliament Complex, Thursday, September 8.
