Lukas Enembe is an Indonesian politician and the current governor of Papua.[1] He had previously been regent of Puncak Jaya Regency between 2007 and 2012.[2]

In September 2017, Enembe was called on by the Corruption Eradication Commission as a suspect in a graft case; supporters of Enembe protested at the National Human Rights Commission, claiming that the issue was politicized due to the upcoming 2018 gubernatorial election in Papua.[3] The Commission later named Enembe as a witness in a graft case involving misappropriation of scholarship funds in Papua, and Enembe met with the Commission face-to-face to clarify his wealth report.[4]
