Former federal lawmaker, Shehu Sani has described as madness
the request by the National Population Commission, NPC, for nearly a trillion
naira to conduct census in the country.
NPC had requested the sum of N942 billion for the conduct of
the national housing and population census in the country this year.
But reports suggested that President Bola Tinubu rejected
the request, opting for the deployment of members of the National Youth Service
Corps, NYSC, for the exercise.
Reacting, Shehu Sani in a post on X on Saturday commended
Tinubu for the outright rejection of the proposal.
“National Population Commission request for almost a
trillion naira just to count the number of Nigerians is total madness.
“The rejection of their budget is commendable,” Shehu Sani
wrote on his verified page.
