Accurate data on the population’s size, composition, and distribution is expected from the census exercise, which will impact Nigeria’s socio-economic development for years to come.

Without adequate funding, the NPC may face difficulties in conducting the exercise effectively, which could result in inaccurate data and negative consequences for the country.

As the country prepares for the census, stakeholders are closely watching to see how the government will address the funding challenges to ensure the success of the exercise.
