1. He claimed that 60% of Nigerians are supposed to be employed ~120M Nigerians. Nigeria Demographics shows that only 44.74% Nigerians are between that age of 20-65years that is ~90 million Nigerians and substantial part of the children between age 20-25 years (9.57% about 19 million) are in school; so how did he get 120 million Nigerians that are qualified for employment; is it that he has counted those underage children he is employing as a trader instead of allowing them to go to school? Peter Obi lied
2. The unemployment rate today in Nigeria is 33.3% (~30 million) out of employable population of 90M (44.74%). 44.74% of Nigeria population Demographics by age distribution are between the age of 20 – 65 years. 66.7% of that spread is 60 million which aligns with employment data released by NBS. So where did Peter Obi get his figure that 72 million Nigerians are unemployed? Another Peter Obi lie
3. Peter Obi claimed that our daily production for the month of July is 1,073,000 barrels per day but OPEC figure confirmed production output from Nigeria as 1,183,000 barrels per day. Where did Peter Obi keep the additional 110,000 barrels per day? Another Peter Obi lie
4. Peter Obi claimed that 80% of our crude oil production is stolen. If our production output is 1,183,000 which according to Peter Obi is the unstolen portion (that is 20% of Nigeria daily production output). That means that Nigeria daily production should by Peter Obi should be 5.9M barrels per day. The highest crude oil production output that Nigeria have ever recorded is 2.5M. Where did Peter Obi get his additional 3.5 million barrels? Another Peter Obi lie
5. Peter Obi claimed that price of crude oil sales in July 2022 is $110 per barrel, but price of crude oil sales averaged $101.21/barrel.
