He emphasized that there is no need for people to travel to their villages and states of origin to be counted as the questionnaire would capture these details and others.
While explaining that the training was aimed at equipping state directors, local government area management staff and other senior management staff with requisite skills required for successfully digital census, he promised to deliver a credible and reliable census that would be acceptable to Nigerians and thereby assist in proper planning.
