REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, SALATIGA -- Presidential candidate number 3 Ganjar Pranowo believes that the Grand Administrator of Nahdlatul Ulama (PBNU) can maintain its neutrality in the 2024 general election.

Ganjar said it was responding to statements by NU scholar Nadirsyah Hosen (Gus Nadir) regarding NU's internal mobilization in support of presidential candidate and vice president number 2 Prabowo Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka.

“I haven't heard [the statement]. But, by the time of the anniversary, there are already codes, but we politicians understand. The taste of that NU is everywhere,” he said

.

Ganjar also believed that PBNU General Chairman Kiai Haji Yahya Cholil Staquf (Gus Yahya) would exercise that neutrality.

“I know him. He can place his neutrality. If NU cadres are everywhere, they have that choice already,” he said.
