The media aides of the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, have explained why Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) dreads facts and figures used by opponents in place of mere rhetoric.

In a statement Sunday, the Obi-Datti Media Office, noted the attempts by Tinubu and his party to cast aspersions on the informed use of statistics by Peter Obi, declaring that the APC candidate is ill-equipped to comprehend arithmetic or statistics.

“Tinubu had said at a rally of rented crowds in Gbaramatu Delta State that Peter Obi of the Labour Party lied with figures, stressing that “a speech-challenged 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.”

It further stated the LP candidate was brimming with practicable ideas and was demystifying electioneering rhetoric by employing simple facts and figures in his campaigns.

“Providing the numbers shows Peter Obi’s preparedness for the high office of the president if and when hired by Nigerian voters come 2023.”

The Obi-Datti Media Office said it was aware of the inability of some contestants in the presidential race to cope with Peter Obi’s speed and deep knowledge of issues.

“This has resulted in a grand design to distract his focus from the issue-driven campaigns which are resonating very well with Nigerians who are ready and committed to taking back their country from forces that have held it down over the years.”

Responding to APC on the use of figures to convey facts, the LP statement added that it is risky seeming to dine with the devil without the proverbial long spoon or to run with the robber and confusing ers-by about the identity of the real thief.

“Our candidate has said repeatedly that his assertions were verifiable and dared anybody with contrary facts and figures to come up. Analysts, media houses, and opponents have formed fact-checking units in their organisations ostensibly to contradict Peter Obi’s facts and figures but they are yet to succeed.”

It cited a recent Arise TV town hall meeting in Abuja where a team of fact-checkers was raised to hook Obi; they ended up apologising to him.

“The acceptable mantra is always if you can’t beat them them, but in Nigerian politics, the reverse is the case: if you can’t beat them pull them down. That is what Obi’s opponents who cannot cope with his deep know-how about the economy are doing.

“We find it extremely laughable and shameful that a candidate who is aspiring to lead his country but has not been able to present any identifiable record of his origin, age, and educational background is challenging the man who is indisputably equipped with the way to go about salvaging our dear country.

“The fact that the APC man has questionable bio-data has left the electorate guessing his real age and health status.

“These days, every APC rally produces its tongue-twisters like “Blu bla blu,” “no down payment for roasted corn for electricity,” “the Deputy Senate President will be the governor of Niger Delta,” “I will recharge Lake Chad if am elected President,” “if you love me go and collect your APV and vote for APC,” “God bless PDAPC,” or miscalling the name of his campaign director-general, Solomon instead of Simon.

“Should we not weep for a country whose ruling party has a candidate like this as their first among equals?” the statement said.

Jisos
This Obi sabi upper cut sha.
From Dino to Soludo and now Emilokan

Abi, Tinubu and his team should stop the campaign of calumny and character assassination.

Peter Obi doesn't tell lies or hire fake bishops, the love for him is natural.

How do you plan and implement without statistics

True. He lacks capacity to act right.

Tinubu, a self acclaimed ant that is scared of statistics...


No be juju be that?



And he wants to lead a heterogeneous country like Nigeria?

Omo!!
See technical knockout

Labour party dey vex for violence department oo

See finishing..

“The fact that the APC man has questionable bio-data has left the electorate guessing his real age and health status.

Chai..

Tinubu should throw in the towel immediately

This is how to respond sensibly

Not some incoherent shouts upandan

I don't know which field that doesn't use stats in arriving at critical decisions

Reasons why many companies now pay data personnel heavily to track all data

And now a presidential candidate does not know the advantage of using stats and figures in tackling issues, this man is just a misfit

And na him handlers I blame, they are too daft and they also handle a very mentally weak candidate

Yeye people

The APC Presidential Candidate is a supposed US trained ant, while his vice is a trained banker; and the both of them don't believe in statistics and numbers.

Tinubu always claims he created the blueprint for the development of Lagos. Doesn't a blueprint require numbers and statistics to use in its planning.

Obi has never used a macroeconomic equation in his presentation, so which equation was Tinubu talking about. Where did he see Obi and Indians solving equations. Oh, it seems that video of an Indian mocking him really upset him. He thinks Obi had something to do with the video.

Tinubu and the guys in Warri really embarrassed themselves. They showed that APC doesn't use numbers in their plans. They just freestyle, and focus ultimately on stomach infrastructure.

Lol!

What you can’t have, you despise.

Tinubu knows he can’t get single statistics correctly and that’s why he’s despising Obi’s use of statistics.

And again because Obi’s statistics exposes the abysmal performance of the APC government which further diminishes APC’s slim chance.

Obi is the next President!

Nv

.

No doubt Tinubu has achieved a lot in the political arena,
but remove Tribal/Party Sentiments & you'll realise the Balablu Bulaba crooner is currently Mentally Unstable & therefore not fit to hold the highest public office in Nigeria.
The signs are all over the place.

"Go bless PDAPC"
"Governor of Niger Delta State"
"Get your APV PVC"
"Recruit 50million & feed them Agbado & Cassava"
"Here is a successful, again, a townhall different from balabloo bloo blu bulaba"
...

I told urchins in the other thread to wait for Obi's response and he didn't disappoint.
Obi is the next president of Nigeria. God bless Nigeria.

Tinubu said no be statistics we go chop cos he still believes in chop make I chop politics. No wonder Nigeria is this backward. Atiku too is toeing his path. Awon ojęlu, jęgudujęra ęda

All I see here is pains all over Peter Obi. Tinubu really dropped the bomb on him, there's nobody that has disgraced this country than a Pandora fraud that was saying Naanu on an international TV like CNN, he was such a disgrace that the lady anchor was visibly ashamed of Obi. Aside him being the king of Lamba,

Question: Did Tinubu create his blueprint without numbers and statistics. Was it freestyle ghetto economics he used

Tinubu collecting wotowoto on a daily....

He's either gaffing or he gets slapped on....

Of course you didn't see the incoherent jagons your beloved drug lord was spiling all over!

You better start getting used to Obi as your new president

..The other one, he thinks na Arithmetic we go chop..he lies with Arithmetics that no Indian can solve. To mention his name is a disgrace to me! I won’t mention his name. Wrong statistics, wrong economy, warehouse economy” - Tinubu

SpatialKing:

I wonder O! Tinubu openly told the whole world that he doesn't have any plans for leading Nigeria. He has never planned in his life. I guess he values Ben Akabueze as a warehouse economist who only talks about numbers that cannot feed anybody.

Ben Akabueze na statistics we go chop?

Tinubu that can not "" the name of the primary school he attended and felt comfortable with Donald Duke's childhood picture misrepresented as his, get liver to yab person.

BAside him being the king of Lamba,

At least Obi showed up for interview on a network like CNN, can Tinubu show up for a live interview on local stations like Arise TV, Channels, TVC?....we both know he will be dropping gaffes, content for comedy.

No, Tinubu didn't create his blue print with false data and fake statistics.

These days, every APC rally produces its tongue-twisters like “Blu bla blu,” “no down payment for roasted corn for electricity,” “the Deputy Senate President will be the governor of Niger Delta,” “I will recharge Lake Chad if am elected President,” “if you love me go and collect your APV and vote for APC,” “God bless PDAPC,” or miscalling the name of his campaign director-general, Solomon instead of Simon.

As simple as to Google what it means to recharge a lake is become extremely difficult to zombidients. If you can't carry out a study on your own, why won't it be so easy for Obi to keep lying and pissing on your heads.

Only to be rattling incoherent and incongruent gibberish.
