Rusli Habibie is an Indonesian politician and former governor of Gorontalo. He is nephew of the third president and seventh vice president of Indonesia, B. J. Habibie.[1]
Habibie's election was significant due to questions over his legal eligibility. He had previously been convicted of defamation of the province's former police chief and was still on probation at the time of the election.[2]
Habibie requested that if schoolteachers smoke on school grounds, then people should send him photos of the offender via WhatsApp so he can reassign them to schools in more remote areas of the province as punishment.[3]
