The Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS) is on course to release the final results of the 2024 National Housing and Population Census.

“The Bureau is currently processing and analysing raw Census Data to the village level as we prepare to disseminate the final census results at the end of September 2024,” Didacus Okoth, a Senior Public Relations Officer, told journalists at Uganda Media Centre in Kampala on Thursday.

UBOS conducted the National Population and Housing Census in May 2024. The preliminary results indicate a total population of 45.9 million people.

The Census 2024 was 99% supported by the Government of Uganda with a total of Shs328.74bn received to undertake the exercise while development partners contributed 1% amounting to Shs18.5bn.

Okoth also updated the public on the status of Enumerators, Enumeration Supervisors, Suppliers and all other Census stakeholders who were liable for payments.

The Bureau conducted training at different levels. These included Training of Trainers (T.O.T) Tier One, National- Tier Two, District Tier Three and Subcoubty which was Tier Four. With a training cost of Shs61.72bn.

According to Okoth, a total of Shs88.7bn has so far been paid to the different categories of the Census personnel through an electronic payment system, E-Cash, where money goes directly to the final beneficiary.

“All service providers for the Census have been paid apart from those that had mismatches in their account details. These have been asked to resubmit their documents with correct details.”

He added: “UBOS wishes to inform the general public especially those that have not yet received their payments that all efforts are geared towards ensuring that everyone is paid. These payments will be paid through their mobile money or bank accounts presented in ones name.”

On the tablets deployed for Census Enumeration, Okoth said a total of 122,026 were deployed among which 99.3% have been retrieved and only 829 are yet to be recovered.

“119,418 power banks were deployed and 90.2% of these were retrieved. 11,733 are yet to be recovered.”
