Good idea by the president. I don't see why almost 1 trillion naira be spent on a census that's guaranteed to give inaccurate data.

I know the president doesn't know the value of data though he claims to be an accountant ("na statistics we go chop?"wink but some of us know there's no life without data

Where's all the money saved from subsidy removal abi allocation no quadruple again
A man who has the largest cabinet in Nigeria's history filled with ineffectual buffoons is more complaining about cost

And is it the same corpers you refused to pay 77k your expecting to use? And you expect them to go a good job o

With the amount networks sell data now, even 77,000 will not solve any problems

Why must NPC be headed by one of them? Will they allow the narrative that they dont have as much as they claim in numbers? Tinubu is not serious about a fair count.

Re: Tinubu Rejects ₦‎942 Billion Census Budget, Proposes Use Of Corpers by CodeTemplar:
With proper planning and use of existing biometric systems like NIN, BVN, and PVC, they should never have to use up to N100 billion. Nigerians are very corrupt. They can even do it in two or more batches to promote reuse of dormant NPC workers whose only time of usefulness is around population census

So that you will pay corpers 10k/15k after all the stress and lies that you'd pay them 40K abi 😹😹

You better employ ad-hoc staff from citizens and youths wey no get work and pay them well... It's a contract.

Even the census chairman wants to harvest taxpayers' money. That why they keep not letting go of archaic ways of doing things so that they keep extorting.

Nice one from the FG for rejecting the proposal.

Complete waste of time. Something that would be rigged again.
We shouldn't waste money on this. It is going to be fraudulent as usual. Only technology can save us. I mean technology built by any country known for massive honesty that can't be bribed. This one that they will be filling forms in one room..
Re: Tinubu Rejects ₦‎942 Billion Census Budget, Proposes Use Of Corpers by Laredojohn(m): 7:26am On Mar 08, 2025
It's quite high though, they could mix corpers with other ardhoc staff and possibly exclude them in some volatile areas in the East, North, more than 1 billion per local Government,

It is not longer business as usual.
Why did your hypocrite leader looter fail to act on this your above maxim below huh

Do you think that is because he knows that he is leading clueless citizens with no regard for recent history?

chisomkachy:
Nigerian President Bola Tinubu’s first supplementary budget includes a fleet of SUVs for himself and his wife, a presidential yacht and the renovation of his villa amid a cost-of-living crisis for some of the poorest people in the world.

The proposal — which seeks additional funding beyond the annual budget approved by Tinubu’s predecessor — comes as the government asks Nigerians to persevere through pain caused in part by a raft of economic reforms ushered in by the new president. Africa’s most populous country faces rampant unemployment, soaring food prices and a plummeting currency.

Federal lawmakers approved the president’s request for extra spending on Thursday, but eliminated the provision of 5 billion naira ($6.01 million) to buy a presidential yacht. Instead, they doubled the allocation to a student loan fund to 10 billion naira, according Abubakar Bichi, chairman of an appropriations committee in the House of Representatives.

The lawmakers approved 1.5 billion-naira proposed to purchase SUVs for the office of First Lady Oluremi Tinubu — an amount larger than that allocated to many individual federal colleges. The supplementary budget also proposes almost 6 billion naira to purchase SUVs for the presidency — more than the amount initially allocated to fund a student loan program for poor families.

Only JAGABAN can correct the imbalance and falsification in the North versus South population figures. If you support him as a Southerner, then it is for your good. Only JAGABAN can poke fingers into the eyes of the Northern Oligarchy

You guys have actually rented out your brains in the name of politics. You all failed to know the right from the wrong.

Are you now saying it's ok to go ahead with census with almost 1tri? I'm sure if Tinubu accept that proposal, you lots will be in the market Square, dancing naked now with your gbajue Obi.
Re: Tinubu Rejects ₦‎942 Billion Census Budget, Proposes Use Of Corpers by HugoBoss10(m): 7:47am On Mar 08, 2025
And another hundreds of millions will be budgeted for the so called committee. After which the same committee will end up defending the census budget.
Indeed this country is full of comedians as leaders grin
