The National Population Commission NPC today clarified, that the criticisms over the postponement of the 2023 Population and Housing Census, which was widely believed to be due to insufficient funds, was misinterpreted.
The Commission explained that contrary to such insinuations, the NPC postponed the census exercise to save Nigeria from a national crisis.
The Federal Commissioner in Plateau State, Mrs Cecilia Dapoet made this disclosure today during a meeting with stakeholders in Jos, the state capital.
The Commissioner expressed optimism that the postponement of the national census would afford the new administration, led by President Bola Tinubu, to prepare adequately for the exercise.
