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..


Did u read the article at all?

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.
Oya let's use our brain
INEC reported that they spent N313bn in 2023 elections. That was when the exchange rate was much better than now and inflation was far better
Also, note that INEC require less logistics and personnel as well as machines for their activity since it caters for only a particular segment of the population (less than half by their ) and participation is voluntary unlike census that everyone including foreigners are expected to be captured
So who should spend more given these circumstances in your opinion using your brain?
Note that the same president who is complaining about cost has the largest appointees in our history, largest budget and had no qualms purchasing jets and other perks for himself
If it was INEC that was asking for that sum, since their interest is embedded, you think they'll complain?
Now they suddenly same corper they've refused to pay 77k to go into sambisa and bandits den and count people
Use your brain young man

Tinubu sees that amount as too small. 1.5 trillion would be approved, and 750 billion released for the census

lol, I was a corper in the Southeast then, I we enumerated Abagana and Abatete area. They just settled us and put us in one house like that to be filling forms. Kai Nigeria!

Kai, You where in almighty Abatete? That means census is usually inflated and rigged like elections

It is not longer business as usual.
Odè. That amount is small for PBAT's approval. They should have added 1 trillion as his share

Census chairman and the board don price Dubai, London and US properties and factor it into the calculations. See cash out for census that will still come out with manufactured figures. Abeg make we continue with our estimated 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.

You politicians should stop thinking of yourselves all the time
Census doesn't pay anything less than 100k
If they use corpers, they may pay around 70-100k

Barawo, Ole, Thief, Armu Robber. God punish you for trying to use N1 trillion just to count Nigerians

Locals will understand the terrain more, indigenous people will be identified accurately and security traits will be minimal compared to using corpers , this factors should be analyzed to ensure seamless proper census data devoid of capturing foreigners.

A northerner is still in charge of census? This is reminiscent of Jega and Jonathan. If you know, you know.

Census is expensive that's why most countries only carry it out after a long period of time.

Yes, census is complete waste of time. It will be rigged. It shouldn't be done. Nigerians are never honest.
They will count goats and chickens as humans.

Same thing they said about the last election and they claimed a glitch at the last minute. Very useless elders. I can never trust anything done by Nigerians in my life. Especially those elders. They are crooks

You don't have sense. You think Tinubu is foolish?

Why don't you wait till you become president so that you sign anything they bring to you like a stupid person that you're.
