It will be very difficult to carry out an actual census because in involves people actually filling out forms and mailing them in. Locating people and all the logistical hurdles in our defunct postal schemes alone will make it nearly impossible to get actual figures. If an actual census were to be carried out, our population might be around 400m and this is something the government is afraid of revealing.

In reality Nigerians are not as many as they think, forget inflated figures, politics and Niger immigrants, we are at most 60 million

I'm beginning to believe that these bet9ja and sex position guys are Seun's "village people".
just the way he neglected NL since 2005 without updating it is the same way he neglected them without visiting or sending them money.
now they're following him on every thread!
They are not guys/girls, they are bots(automated software).

As usual its your brothers up north that have made every effort to get the true reflection of the population of the country an exercise in nullity.
They have always created this false impression that they are more populated than the south.
With them just about everything has to be rigged to maintain an undue advantage over other regions.

Former Senator, Shehu Sani, has called for a new census to be conducted in Nigeria to bring an end to estimated figures, Igbere TV reports.


United Nations’ estimates puts Nigeria’s population at over 201 million.


Mr Sani who used to represent Kaduna Central at the National Assembly tweeted on Wednesday that a new census would help update the nation’s figures.


“The last national census was conducted in 2006; its high time we conduct a new census in order to update Our figures so that we can end this “about 170m, about 180m, about 200m” guesstimates,” he said.

A census is indeed desirable.

Yet to be seen however, how a census will hold successfully in the midst of intractable security challenges across the country.

Best the FG focus on resolving the security challenges first before undertaking any census. If the present government makes significant progress in addressing the security challenges, perhaps the next administration can make a census the core of their development policy.

Lolzz

With the number of death recorded since the onset of this administration and coupled with the mass exodus of Nigerians away from the country one should expect a considerable reduction in the population census...albeit ofcourse the Northern population is expected to grow despite all the turmoil there its important they keep a strangle grip on demographics.. grin grin

OP, I know you were just trying to point out that Senator Sani is no longer in the Senate but you should always follow the rule.

Once a Senator is always a Senator.

Next time say Senator Shehu Sani not Former Senator Shehu Sani

Nigerian Population is not up to 150million .....

The population figure of 200m is inflated and most states inflate their figures.

Re: Shehu Sani Calls For New Census To End Estimated Figures by Nobody: 6:27pm On Jul 10, 2019
If Nigeria honestly wants to know its real population and not the FAKE one that the British colonialists had festered upon us since the country's inception, we need a census to be monitored with over 10000 UN observers (no British people allowed amongst the observers). I guarantee you that the real population of each ethnic group would be known and you'd be surprised how the citizens had been lied to and deceived for decades by the Brits...boy, I hate them! But those who are actually benefitting from the fake census from the colonial era would never allow the true population of each group to be ascertained.
