2016 Census: To Be Or Not To Be? by FirstNigerian(m): 7:31am On Feb 12, 2016
Back then in secondary school, I was taught that census in Nigeria is conducted every 10years.
The last census conducted in Nigeria was in 2006. All things being equal, the next census should be in this year 2016.
However it seems not many Nigerians are discussing it.
Will the 2016 national census be conducted or not?

It is better we discourse it and when it will be conducted but as for this year, it don't think it's possible as there's no provision for it.

Our next census needs to be properly structured. Finger prints should be captured (digital). They shoul work with the agency for national ID card.

Many irregularities are involved. If we introduce electronic capture, it will make things better.
