JAKARTA - The Central Executive Board (DPP) of the United Development Party (PPP) will announce a presidential candidate (candidate) which will be supported in the 2024 Presidential Election (Pilpres) this afternoon, Wednesday, April 26. The plan is for the announcement of the name of the candidate for the party presidential candidate bearing the Kaaba to be held at the residence of the Acting Chairperson (Plt) of PPP, Muhamad Mardiono in Sleman, Yogyakarta. "(The announcement of the presidential candidate, ed) at 14.00 WIB today. The location is in Sleman, the house of the PPP chairman," said PPP spokesman Usman Tokan, when confirmed, Wednesday, April 26. However, Usman did not want to reveal the figure to be declared as a PPP presidential reading. Sementara sebelumnya, Plt Ketum PPP Mardiono menyebut banyak pendukung PPP arus bawah yang mendukung capres PDI Perjuangan, Ganjar Pranowo. This was said by Mardiono when holding an open house at his residence in Sleman Regency, DIY, Monday, April 24. "Of course that (after Megawati's announcement, ed) will develop dynamically, because of course many media colleagues will cover for the past six months, there are many of our lower currents and some have even directly declared their support for Ganjar," said Mardiono. Mardiono said many had voiced support for Ganjar through the DPP proposal letter. According to him, Ganjar has become a big family of PPP considering that the Governor of Central Java is also paired with PPP.

"Pak Ganjar is like a big family of PPP because all this time in Central Java it was paired with PPP, and in the past when we were paired with Pak Ganjar Pranowo it was the result of istikharah," he said.
