Ridho: "Papa Jadi Calon Presiden Baru Wacana"

RIDHO Rhoma mengaku tidak pernah bermimpi ayahnya bakal menjadi presiden, meski diakuinya sang ´raja dangdut´ telah mendapat dukungan sejak beberapa tahun lalu.

"Saya sama sekali nggak pernah mimpi papa jadi presiden. Konsekuensinya besar," kata Ridho Rhoma di Bakrie Tower, Rasuna Epicenrum, Kuningan, Jakarta Selatan, Selasa (13/11).

Rhoma Irama mantap mencalonkan diri menjadi presiden Republik Indonesia periode 2014-2019. Dalam pengakuannya, beberapa waktu lalu, Rhoma sadar pencalonannya sebagai presiden akan banyak menemui sandungan, salah satunya isu poligami. Namun bagi pelantun lagu Begadang itu, isu poligami takkan membuatnya mundur.

Sekarang, tahun ini, papa pada posisi yang nggak menolak. Papa nggak mungkin menolak lagi. Saya tahu itu berat. Tetapi, saya yakin beliau tahu apa yang dilakukannya," terangnya.

"Hal ini bukan yang baru buat kami, dan kami serahkan kepada masayarakat. Dan, ini baru sebatas wacana," imbuhnya.

RIDHO Rhoma admits that he never dreams of his father being a President, though he admitted that the King of Dangdut has received supports since several years ago.

“I never dream of Papa to become a President. The consequence is big,” said Ridho in Bakrie Tower, Rasuna Epicenrum, Kuningan, South Jakarta, on Tuesday (13/11).

Rhoma Irama steadfastly proposes for candidate of president for period of 2014-2019. In his testimony some time ago, Rhoma realized that his candidacy will not be a smooth one, one of the upcoming problems is polygamy issue, yet the singer of ‘Begadang’ will not give up.

“This time, Papa does not refuse it. It is impossible to refuse again. I know it is hard, but I am sure that he knows what he does,” he explained.

“This is not a new thing, and we will leave it up to the people, this is only a discourse,” he added.
