Jakarta, CNNIndonesia —
The senior PDIP politician, Panda Nababan, spoke about the Minister of Defense’s discourse Prabowo Subianto a duet with the Governor of Central Java Ganjar Pranowo in 2024 election.
Panda considers that the talk about the Prabowo and Ganjar duet makes no sense. He said the PDI-P firmly stated that the presidential candidate had to be a party cadre. In addition, he believes that Prabowo certainly does not want to become Ganjar’s vice presidential candidate.
“Frankly, it’s a pity that the viewers are getting lost. Why? How is the way for Ganjar-Prabowo? The PDI Perjuangan on the 50th anniversary has stated firmly from (the presidential candidate) from the PDI Perjuangan,” said Panda in the perspective-fighting discussion that was broadcast detikcom in collaboration with Total Politik, Tuesday (21/3).
Panda considers that the Prabowo-Ganjar duet is very unlikely to occur. He stated that the duet discourse did not make sense.
“That is highly improbable, impossible. From common sense, it doesn’t make sense for us to discuss these two,” he said.
“Prabowo, do you want to be the second person? It’s rewarded that from PDI it’s impossible to be the second person in the winning party. So actually those who said Ganjar-Prabowo were lost, and then Cak Imin didn’t have to continue threatening to disband,” he added.
Prabowo and Ganjar were previously seen getting intimate with President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) after the three of them attended the Great Harvest event in Kebumen Regency, Central Java, last Thursday (9/3).
In the show, all three of them seem to do selfie or selfie in the middle of the rice fields. In fact, lately there has been talk of a duet of Prabowo and Ganjar after the intimacy.
This duet is considered by some to influence the presidential and vice presidential candidates of the United Indonesia Coalition (KIB), which is still being formulated. KIB members namely Golkar, PPP and PAN have presidential and vice presidential candidates from their respective cadres.
The Prabowo-Ganjar duet discourse could affect the nomination market in KIB considering that there is an open possibility for the Gerindra-PKB coalition to join KIB.
