As is known, in the 2020 fiscal year, the Banten Provincial Government has allocated assistance of Rp. 117 billion for as many as 4,042 Islamic boarding schools throughout Banten.
“It was me who reported to the Attorney General’s Office. So much information about the cutting, it was not ASN (state civil servants), officials, no. Ask the prosecutor, it was me who reported it,” Wahidin told reporters at his official residence, Thursday (8/8). 4/2021).
According to Wahidin, the report on the alleged budget cut was proof of his commitment to clean up corruption in Banten.

Wahidin admitted that he often asked law enforcement officials for help in making a policy.
The former mayor of Tangerang gave an example, when he asked for a legal view regarding the plan to increase capital participation in Bank Banten to the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK).

Wahidin guaranteed that he would not provide legal assistance if there were already suspects named by investigators.
