How mismatched data plagued Uganda's 2024 census report

In an interview, Mr Vincent Ssennono, the principal statistician and the Ubos acting deputy executive director, walked us through the entire process; from converting the raw data to dissemination.

“In order to avoid people tampering with the data, the raw data from the field was sent to Ubos servers and stored," Mr Ssennono said.

He said from the servers, the Ubos experts generated different tables for different information and converted them into Word documents and input them in the report.

At this stage, Mr Ssennono said, the 2014 figures were then merged with those of 2024 for comparison.
