Reasons for Vice President's Resignation: Prabowo Talks Education, Gibran Denies Diploma Issues

This is not an easy decision, but it is the best choice.

This decision is my personal choice and is not related to my diploma.

Once again, it is not related to my diploma.

All my educational documents are complete and have been submitted to the court.

I hope that moving forward, there will be no more issues like this because democracy needs to be improved.

The government's administration should also provide more certainty because Indonesia's future is not just about who leads today, but also about how we prepare the next generation to lead tomorrow.

There Have Been Previous Rulings from the Constitutional Court and Supreme Court

Although not mentioned by Prabowo and Gibran, the issue regarding Gibran's educational qualifications had already surfaced in public before Gibran's resignation.

There have been rulings from the Constitutional Court (MK) and the Supreme Court (MA) regarding Gibran's educational requirements in the 2024 presidential election and concerning Gibran's diploma equivalency certificate.

On October 5, 2026, the MK issued its ruling on case number 01/PHPU.PRES-XXIV/2026, rejecting the lawsuit from Denny Indrayana and others; however, in its consideration, the MK noted that Gibran's high school diploma could not be found.

On October 30, 2026, the MA issued ruling number 742 K/TUN/2026, which annulled the diploma equivalency certificate attributed to Gibran.
