Bolaji Ogundele, Abuja
National population and Housing Census earlier scheduled for March 29 has been shifted to May 2023.
Minister of Information and Culture; Lai Mohammed announced this after the Federal Executive Council (FEC), presided over by President Muhammadu Buhari at the State House, Abuja, on Wednesday.
According to lai Mohammed; the decision to reschedule was necessitated by last week’s decision of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to reschedule the Governorship and Houses of Assembly elections to March 18.
He also stated clearly that the Council approved N2.8 billion for the National Population Commission (NPC) to procure some software to be used for the conduct of the census.
