When is the next census and what should be asked? by Blue3k(m): 3:44am On Apr 13, 2020
Nigeria needs conduct a census for proper planning and to adjust allocation. It's been 14 years since the last census was conducted. Nigeria has been stalling due to a lack of funds. It seems the Buhari administration is uninterested in conducting it so the next administration should tackle it.

Demographic information:
• ethnic background
• sex
• age
• address
• household size
• citizenship
• does anyone in the house live elsewhere.
• home ownership or renting

What other questions should be asked?

Interesting I wouldn't think Nigerians would want such an option. I might see the government asking about religion and marital status. Religious demographics is something nairalanders seem to obsess over so it should be asked.

Example: Kaduna is 45 Christian or something.
