“The commission has intensified preparatory activities deploying technological innovation on a massive scale to conduct a truly scientific census that will not only be accurate and reliable but also transparent to all Nigerians.”

“We have also brought in some eggheads from our universities and retired experts from the civil service to train our workers for better efficiency,” he said.
