LGA-Level Training of Supervisors and Enumerators for Population and Housing Census Postponed
The National Population Commission (NPC) has announced the postponement of the LGA-level training of supervisors and enumerators for the upcoming 2023 Population and Housing Census, which was scheduled to begin on April 13, 2023.
According to a press release issued by Dr. Isiaka Yahaya, the Director of Public Affairs, the postponement was due to emerging issues. The new date for the training will be communicated to the public as soon as possible.
Despite the delay, the commission reiterated its commitment to ensuring a credible and acceptable census. The statement also warned the public to disregard any message that contradicts the information provided in the press release.
The announcement may cause some inconvenience to functionaries who were scheduled to participate in the training on the original date, but the commission assures Nigerians that all preparations for the census are in top gear.
The NPC is responsible for conducting the census, which is a crucial tool for policymaking, planning, and resource allocation in the country. The census provides accurate and reliable data on population distribution, growth, and demographic characteristics that are used for various purposes.
It is unclear what specific issues led to the postponement, but the commission's assurance of its commitment to conducting a credible census may provide some reassurance to the public.
