In order to conduct a successful national census, the National Population Commission (NPC), has commenced South East zonal training of field functionaries for first census pretest in Enugu.
It was gathered that the exercise which is going on simultaneously in all the six geopolitical zone was to prepare ground for a credible and acceptable census exercise.
Declaring the five-day zonal training open in Enugu, the Federal Commissioner, representing, Enugu State, Ike Eze, disclosed that the pretest is primarily aimed at testing the census methodology, questionnaires, data collection methods, manual for fieldwork and so on.
He stated that the first pre-test would take place in 112 Local Government Areas in 36 States of the federation and FCT demarcated between 2016- 2018, adding that the census instrument would be deployed to these areas to test run their suitability and readiness for the actual census.
He, however, disclosed that the commission would conduct second pretest exercise to correct any short fall identified during the first pretest.
“The pretest workshop is designed to train the facilitators who will in turn carryout the zonal level training of the enumerators and other field functionaries in readiness for the census and conventionally in the middle of the EAD exercise.” (Daily Trust)
