Faisal Harris’ decision to run for legislative election received support from his wife, Jennifer Dunn. Jennifer Dunn even went on a trip with Faisal Harris to narrow alleys to meet residents.
Jedun, Jennifer Dunn’s nickname, said that her presence in the community and taking part in blusukan was a form of devotion to her husband who will take part in the DPR RI legislative election on February 14 2024.
“I’m here to support my husband one thousand percent, I support him, I accompany him,” she said last June 2023 when accompanying Faisal on a blusukan.
