JAKARTA - Chairman of the Golkar Party Airlangga Hartarto responded to Medan Mayor Bobby Nasution's statement stating that he wanted to immediately take the registration form for the 2024 North Sumatra Governor Election (Pilgub Sumut) through all parties, including through the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP), even though he had been dropped as a cadre of the party bearing the bull head symbol.
"We only give assignments from Golkar," said Airlangga at the halal bihalal event of the Indonesian Renewal Youth Force (AMPI) at the Double Tree Hotel by Hilton, Jakarta, Tuesday, April 16 evening.
The Coordinating Minister for the Economy admitted that he had assigned the Mayor of Medan Bobby Nasution and the Chairman of the North Sumatra Golkar DPD Musa Rajekshah alias Ijeck to run in the 2024 Pilkada. Both will be promoted into cagub-cawagub North Sumatra.
"I hope and encourage young cadres who have been appointed to be tested and tough in the regional elections. In addition, Golkar will also see electability going forward while evaluating. We will check the results again later," he explained.
Airlangga said the Golkar Party would evaluate after submitting the assignment letter to Bobby and Ijeck. He will see how Bobby and Ijeck prepare themselves before being properly registered with the KPU.
Previously, Medan Mayor Bobby Nasution stated that in the near future he would like to immediately take the registration form for the 2024 North Sumatra gubernatorial election through all parties, including through PDIP, even though he had been dropped as a PDIP cadre.
"Yes, we registered to try the form from all parties. Yes, God willing, we will try it later (take a form from PDIP). God willing, hopefully," said Bobby, to a number of media crews, Tuesday (16/4/2024) afternoon.
Bobby said that later he would continue to try to establish good communication with PDIP. According to him, establishing good communication is not only related to politics, but also work matters are also assisted and supported by a number of political parties in the Medan City DPRD.
"Iya (jalin komunikasi dengan baik), saya sudah sampaikan kami dengan seluruh partai bukan hanya unsur politiknya ya, tetapi urusan kerja kami, ya saya dengan DPRD Kota Medan, dengan seluruh faksi. Misalnya, beberapa kebijakan, beberapa keputusan yang kita ambil yang artinya kerja kita di Medan juga disupport oleh partai-partai politik," ujarnya.
Bobby admitted that he did not take any dizziness and ignored some of the PDIP's symptoms that offended him. In fact, Bobby considers the PDIP sentiment as a longing call.
"I think yesterday was also a longing call. God willing, we will take a form," he said.
Bobby said, there have been several parties that have supported him to run in the North Sumatra Pilgub. The support was also given verbally or in the form of a letter.
