Enugu PDP Celebrates SC Verdict Confirming Party Supremacy

The Enugu State branch of the Peoples Democratic Party has welcomed the Supreme Court’s decision upholding the party’s authority over its internal management.

“We applaud the Supreme Court for endorsing the concept of party supremacy in handling internal matters,” stated Chief Uche Obute, the public relations officer for the Enugu chapter of the PDP, in an announcement provided to our correspondent.

“This choice truly marks a triumph for democracy within the nation,” he observed.

In its latest ruling, the Supreme Court stated that issues concerning party leadership roles, such as the position of national secretary, were strictly matters for the party itself. The court emphasized that these decisions were solely within the purview of the party’s own processes and thus did not fall under judicial authority.

The party highlighted that Hon. Udeh Okoye was properly nominated, supported, and approved as the official national secretary of the PPD via the party’s internal processes, adhering to the guidelines set forth in the PDP Constitution (amended in 2017).

The statement indicated that Okoye had returned to his duties as the national secretary of the party. It also mentioned that he was recently present in Enugu for the PDP zonal congress held at Okpara Square in Enugu, an event deemed peaceful, transparent, and successful by both the South-East PDP National Congress Committee and INEC.

The State Working Committee encourages all party members to stay unified and collaborate to propel the party ahead.

“We express our gratitude to the NWC, the PDP Board of Trustees, and the PDP Governors’ Forum for their outstanding leadership and contributions towards resolving internal party matters,” stated Obute.

The committee likewise applauded Governor Peter Mbah of Enugu State, who leads the party in the South-East Zone, for the Supreme Court’s decision.

“In summary, the State Working Committee of PDP in Enugu State, skillfully headed by Chairman Dr. Martin Chukwunweike, would like to express gratitude to the National Working Committee of the party for their outstanding leadership and persistence. Additionally, they extend thanks to the PDP Board of Trustees for their paternal guidance in addressing internal disputes within the party,” he concluded.

– Kepala Kantor Komunikasi Kepresidenan
Hasan Nasbi
Menganggap ancaman dari paket berisi kepala babi yang dikirm ke kantor media Tempo sebaiknya tidak diperbesar agar jangan sampai penyebaran rasa takut, karena ini adalah sasaran utama para pelaku terror.

Juru bicara istana pun menyatakan bahwa maksud responnya adalah mengingatkan agar wartawan Tempo, yakni Fransiska, mengecek isi dari paket tersebut sebagai tindakan supaya ancaman yang dirancang oleh pelaku penyerangan terhadap media dan publik gagal mencapai tujuannya.

“Saya menyempurnakan respons itu, ya, sekalian saja, kan? Kalau orang kirim (paket) itu sebagai teror, ternyata bahan makanan, dia dimasak ajalah. Peneror, kan, pasti stres kalau bahan kiriman dia dimasak, kan begitu,” kata Hasan dalam keterangan tertulis kepada media di Jakarta, Sabtu (22/3/2025).

Laki-laki dengan latar belakang sebagai konsultan politik tersebut menjelaskan bahwa pernyataan dirinya sesuai dengan sikap yang ditunjukkan oleh Fransisca atau biasa dipanggil Caca, yaitu seorang jurnalis dari Tempo yang menerima kiriman paket melalui media sosial dan tampaknya tetap teguh dalam pendiriannya tanpa takut.

Menurut Hasan, tujuan peneror mengirimkan paket itu adalah untuk menebar ketakutan, sehingga kemudian akan dibesar-besarkan oleh banyak pihak.

“Kita tidak boleh malah membantu menyebarkan rasa takut, sebab ini adalah tujuan dari pelaku teror. Harusnya kita yang mengurangi pengaruhnya. Cara termudah untuk meredam kekuatan pelaku teror tersebut, yaitu dengan ‘memasakkannya’, bukankah begitu?” ungkap Hasan.

Terkait masalah kebebasan pers, Hasan juga menggarisbawahi bahwa sampai saat ini belum ada satupun media atau wartawan yang diproses laporan atas sikap kritis mereka terhadap pemerintahan tersebut.

Hasan berpendapat hal itu merupakan bukti konkret bahwa pemerintahan tidak membatasi kebebasan media. Presiden Prabowo Subianto juga tak menyebutkan secara spesifik tentang kasus Tempo serta isu kebebasan pers sebab dianggap tidak terjadi kendala apa pun.

“Tidak ada orang yang dicekal dari istana hanya karena bersikap kritis. Tidak ada. Tidak ada jurnalis yang diblokir meliput, misalkan, di berbagai kantor pemerintahan sebab pendapat kritis mereka. Tidak ada. Oleh karena itu, menurut pihak pemerintah ini merupakan bukti konkret dukungan terhadap kebebasan pers,” katanya.

Sebelumnya, Jubir Istana Hasan Basri mendapat banyak kritikan terkait pernyataan yang menyebutkan bahwa paket berisi kepala babi yang dikirim ke kantor Tempo harus dimasak saja.

Coalition of Civil Society strongly condemned Hasan Nasbi’s statement for being seen as lacking empathy and belittling press freedom, deeming such remarks unfit coming from a high-ranking government official.

Dalam pernyataannya, Nasbi dengan nada sindiran mengusulkan untuk memasak kepala babi yang ditemukan di hadapan kantor Tempo. Koalisi mencatat bahwa komentar itu bukan saja menandakan ketidaktahuan akan belas kasihan, tapi juga melupakan hak atas kebebasan pers serta keselamatan wartawan.

Kelompok-kelompok masyarakat sipil seperti Centra Initiative, Imparsial, PBHI, ELSAM, Walhi, HRWG, DeJuRe, serta Setara Institute menggarisbawahi bahwa pernyataan Nasbi menunjukkan adanya penurunan kesungguhan pemerintahan dalam mendukung demokrasi dan hak-hak warga negara.

Sebaliknya dari mengungkapkan kesedihan tentang insiden teror, pernyataan yang disampaikan Nasbi malah dipandang sebagai pemberian legitimasi pada upaya pengintimidasan terhadap pers.

“Pernyataan itu tak boleh dibiarkan begitu saja lantaran mengandung elemen ketidakpuasan terhadap golongan wartawan atau media yang bersifat kritikal,” tandas Koalisi pada pernyatiannya hari Sabtu (22/3).

Mereka juga mendesak
Prabowo
Untuk mempertimbangkan ulang jabatan Nasbi sebagai Kepala Kantor Komunikasi Kepresidenan karena tindakannya dianggap tak pantas dan tidak sesuai dengan prinsip-prinsip demokrasi.

Julius Ibrani dari PBHI dengan tegas mengecam Nasbi sambil berkata, “Kepala Kantor yang tanpa isi di kepala tetapi memiliki kantor.”

Pernyataan tersebut mencerminkan ketidakpuasan atas performa Nasbi, terlebih lagi setelah twit-nya tentang Rancangan Undang-Undang Tentara Nasional Indonesia (RUU TNI) dihapus dan hal ini menambah daftar kontroversial sebelumnya.
