Kwankwaso Defends Obi's Statistics

Speaking on Politics Today, a Channels Television programme, on Thursday, Rabiu Kwankwaso said individuals were not above mistakes and could sometimes make slips of the tongue.

His comments followed Vice-President Kashim Shettima's description of Peter Obi as a “master of bogus statistics and incoherent economic prescriptions.”

In response, Kwankwaso said he regularly listened to Obi and checked the figures he presented, adding that most of them were correct.

Kwankwaso expressed happiness that Obi was conversant with statistics, not only in Nigeria but also in other parts of the world, including Europe and Asia.
