Chairman of the National Population Census (NPC), Nasir Isa Kwarra, says President Bola Tinubu will announce new dates for Nigeria’s conduct of the national population and housing census.
The NPC boss said this after his meeting with the President, noting that further delay in the conduct of the census will incur additional expenses.
Kwarra said he briefed the president on the commission’s preparations for the census, adding that the President was fully apprised of extant plans and processes for the exercise.
The census earlier scheduled for May 3 to 7, 2023 by former President Muhammadu Buhari was postponed to a date to be determined by the Tinubu administration.
