unnecessary census

Nigeria to spent 272billion naira for the next census, when we only need 261billion to complete all ongoing Dam project. I think it would be better to complete such projects than investing in census that always end up with controversy, while the government are not using our population in carrying out their developmental plan. even when I was in the city and begged the official to count me in 2006 census, I was not counted, not to talk of the farmers and herdsmen in the villages. census is good, but Nigeria census is a waste of resource, they end up with imaginary figure that we could have imaging and carry on with our life.If the government consider census figure in their planning, they would not have budget 40billion for ministry of agriculture in 2016 budget, even if its base on 2006 census figure of 140million people.
