He said, this and successive governments will use the data that will be collected in the 2021 PHC for planning, budgeting and development purposes.
Mr Andani said this at Damongo, the Savannah regional capital on Sunday June 6, 2021, at the Damongo Nurses Training College.
“I want to appeal to you to take your time and care to help conduct the 2021 Population and Housing Census. For any mistake that is made in 2021, it will take Savannah region the next ten (10) years to correct it”, he said.
