The 2010 Population and Housing Census is unlikely to end Sunday. This is because a large number of people are yet to be enumerated.

The exercise which started on September 26 was expected to end last Sunday but was postponed due to the shortage of materials and logistics.

The Census Secretariat is however yet to collate the actual number of persons who have been enumerated over the past three weeks.

The Communications and Media Officer at the Census Secretariat, Michael Adu-Gyamfi tells Joy News counting will continue until everyone is enumerated.

Even though he conceded that Sunday was said to be the deadline for the project, he was quick to add that the secretariat will still cover areas where people are yet to be enumerated.

“We are now going to find out how many people we have counted so far. As to whether we have been able to cover all the people or we are yet to finish not.

“…After today the exercise will still be ongoing,” he added.
