NPC is prepared to undertake a delayed census when Tinubu assumes the presidency

All of the municipal governments received approximately 450,000 digital devices.The government's transition program and the nation's post-election mood, according to the National Population Commission (NPC), are to blame for the delay of the 2023 Population and Housing Census.This was said on Sunday in Abuja at a news conference by Dr. Inuwa Jalingo, the 2023 Census Manager and Director of the National Population Commission (NPC). Jalingo claimed that the commission was ready for the 2023 census and stated that the NPC had laid the foundation for the country of Nigeria's first-ever digital census. According to him, the commission had the best success possible in terms of preparedness in all directions. "We completed the digital census to the required international quality. All of the municipal governments received about 450,000 digital devices, he claimed. Jalingo hoped that the incoming administration would build on the successes noted for the final conduct of the census, stating that government was a continual process. The commission has effectively educated about 60,000 facilitators throughout the nation, according to the census manager, who praised the Buhari-led administration for its assistance. Anybody who claims that we are not ready must be ignorant, he said.
