Statistics is an informative science, in fact, the science and art of extracting meaning from seemingly incomprehensible data. Most sectors of human endeavor produce raw data. Thus there is a lot of raw data that is usually stored in computer discs. Such undigested data is of no use until we can start to make sense of it. Proper utilization of available resources in all sectors of an economy can accelerate the attainment of the aspirations of Vision 2030
