We were supposed to have started interviewing last Monday but they are interviewing effectively since April 15,\u201d Dr Mukiza observed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf there is anybody who has not been shortlisted and qualifies and has evidence that they applied, we are asking them to go to the districts and be interviewed,\u201d he appealed.<\/p>\n<p>Ubos officers representing the Census Commission will be setting off on April 17 to ensure that complaints are resolved, according to Dr Mukiza.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, numerous complaints from applicants alleging unfair shortlisting processes had forced Ubos to extend deadlines for the display of shortlists by a week from April 8.<\/p>\n<p>Districts were instructed to suspend interviewing processes until the review of complaints was complete.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Dr Mukiza on Tuesday emphasized that it is wrong for one person to hold two positions as an enumerator and supervisor concurrently.<\/p>\n<p>The national population housing census is planned for May 10-19, 2024 with May 9 the census night.<\/p>\n<p>At least 114,460 enumerators and 18,483 supervisors are expected to participate in the exercise.<\/p>\n<p>But Dr Mukiza says recruiting university students as enumerators and supervisors, will not be possible since learners have a tight academic schedule.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf they have not been trained as enumerators which we are starting on April 29, then they can&#8217;t count. So, I have advised universities to keep their students in universities when they do exams. We shall count them from there using the institution questionnaire,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cFor other learners, they will be in holidays. Those are the most important people wanted at home. The dynamics of these children matter for the welfare of their households.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While census night will be on May 9, May 10 \u201cwill be a public holiday so that people can be found at their residences.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Enumerators are expected to count people who will have stayed in the country effective census night.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/uganda\">Uganda<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
