Population census likely next year

A top source in the Presidency, who spoke in confidence, said Buhari is prepared to break the census jinx.

He said: “This will be another breakthrough for the Buhari administration. The NPC has secured the approval of the President to conduct a census by May 2022.

“The President has said the nation can no longer adequately plan without a correct census.

“I think the President will make a proclamation very soon after necessary consultation and advisory from the Council of State.”

The source added: “About N200billion has been proposed.”
