The National Population Commission might fail to come up due to poor budgetary allocation to the commission from the Federal government.

According to PUNCH, the Chairman of the NPC, Chief Eze DuruIheoma, who said this in Abuja during a press briefing in commemoration of the 2015 World Population Day, Nigerians must demand for 2016 National Census if they want it.

He noted that over N200bn would be required to carry out the census exercise that would be universally acceptable to correct the mistakes of the past.

Chief DuruIheoma, had recently complained of poor budgetary allocation and the fate of the conduct of 2016 census rests solely on Nigerians and the Federal Government that should provide the needed funds for the exercise
