The Use Of Statistics By Peter Obi Is To Demystify Campaign Rhetorics – Diran Onifade.
By Ebor Cletus Ralph Jr.
The media Team of the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr. Peter Obi, have explained why his counterpart in the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu, dreads facts and figures used by opponents in place of rhetorics.
The arrow head of Obi-Datti Media Office, Diran Onifade, said this in response to aspersions cast on the use of statistics by Peter Obi, by Tinubu and the APC Campaign, in Abuja, on Sunday.
Diran explained that Obi’s resort to the use of statistics was to demystify campaign rhetorics.
He noted that, this has made the APC candidate who is ill-equipped to comprehend neither arithmetic nor statistics jittery.
Onifade said, “Tinubu had said at a rally of rented crowds in Gbaramatu Delta State that Peter Obi of the Labour Party lied with figures.
“A contestant who cannot pronounce or spell ‘m.u.l.t.i.p.l.i.c.a.t.i.o.n’ and wants to argue about numbers, arithmetic, and statistics says a lot about how low we have climbed in this country.”
