In an interview with GhanaWeb, Nana Obiri Boahen minced no words in describing the MPs assertions as ‘rubbish’ and borne out of ignorance. He said the population census is a national exercise that should be encouraged and embraced by all persons. “I have seen that comment and I want to say that and my response is that he should not talk like a notorious village drunkard. Nana Obiri Boahen urged Ghanaians not to heed to the statement by the Banda MP and get themselves counted. Ahmed Ibrahim in an Okay interview said that the census was politically motivated as government was targeting twenty-five new constituencies with the exercise.
