Abdul Wahid, currently serving as the Governor of Riau, has had a remarkable career journey, rising from humble beginnings as a cleaning service worker and construction laborer. Recently, he was seen arriving at the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) headquarters wearing a white t-shirt and a mask. The KPK has summoned him for questioning, with reports indicating that he has assets worth billions and debts amounting to Rp1.5 billion. The OTT (Offender Investigation) process against him has been marred by controversy, with some figures, such as Ustaz Abdul Somad, denying the allegations. The Riau Provincial Government has stated that Governor Wahid was only summoned for questioning and has not been named a suspect. The KPK's OTT against Governor Abdul Wahid has resulted in the detention of a total of 10 individuals.
