Vicky Lumentut

Godbless Sofcar Vicky Lumentut

He is married to J.P.A. Runtuwene and the couple has four children. His first term ended on 8 December 2015, but he was sworn in again on 9 May 2016 after winning the 2016 mayoral election in February 2016.

As mayor, he established a "Manado Smart City" program, which involved setting up a command center and a variety of applications. Between 2010 and 2015, the city's budget and income increased by more than twofold, with a health insurance for all residents and establishment of paid neighborhood leader positions. He also launched a car free day for the city in 2016. In 2017, Tempo awarded him with an "Attractiveness Award" for the city's appeal to investors and businesses.

He was dishonorably discharged from Demokrat in 2018, when a video of him attending a legislative candidate briefing for Nasdem circulated. At that point, he was the leader of Demokrat's North Sulawesi provincial branch, having served in that position since 2011 and for a second term since 2016. His former party accused Lumentut of having been pressured by the Supreme Court to join Nasdem, as he was being investigated on corruption charges.
