Employee of the Indonesian Informatics and Business University (UNIBI), Bandung City, Deni Lugina was fired after posting a sentence that insulted President Joko Widodo (Jokowi). Here’s the case of the case.
Posting Inappropriate Sentences
Quoted from detikjabarMonday (16/1/2023), the Twitter account @Loegie wrote inappropriate sentences for the President.
In the circulating screenshot, the Twitter account @Loegie on January 12 replied to the post by the @BosPurwa account which uploaded a video of Jokowi attending the 50th anniversary of the PDIP.
In his post, @Loegie wrote the sentence ‘SO WANT TO PUT HIS LIPS WITH BRICKS‘ accompanied by a laughing emotion.
Gabriel’s response
The post received reactions from netizens who then mentioned the accounts of Jokowi’s eldest son, Gibran Rakabuming Raka and Jokowi’s youngest son, Kaesang Pangarep.
“This is it, mas @kaesanggp mas @gibran_tweet, the creature that wants to hit daddy uses a brick,” wrote one Twitter account.
Gibran then responded. “Just relax,” wrote Gibran on his Twitter account on Saturday (14/1).
detikjabar tried to contact Loegie’s Twitter account, including his Instagram account. However, on Sunday (15/1), the two Loegie accounts were no longer available.
After tracing, the Twitter account @Loegie was found to belong to a UNIBI Bandung employee named Deni Lugina.
UNIBI Open Voice
Reported detikjabar, UNIBI spoke up about the employee’s post. Through its official statement, UNIBI said that the curse that went viral on Twitter was actually made by one of its employees.
“We emphasize that all actions/activities/statements carried out or submitted by related persons are NOT statements or attitudes that represent UNIBI,” wrote the campus statement on the Instagram account @unibiofficial.
UNIBI also stated that Deni Lugina was no longer an UNIBI employee as of January 14, 2023 or two days after writing an insult to Jokowi.
“As of January 14, 2023 at 12.00 WIB, this person with the account name @loegie (Deni Lugina) is no longer a UNIBI employee,” said the statement.
“UNIBI always upholds the positive values of higher education institutions in the world of education and does not condone any action that violates academic provisions, university values or applicable legal provisions,” concluded UNIBI’s statement.
