The Namibian Statistics Agency (NSA) will, after a year of postponements, conduct the population and housing census between August and October this year.

This was revealed by the NSA's Chief Executive Officer, Alex Shimuafeni, during a media conference.

After two postponements last year, the NSA says it is currently busy testing the data collection applications in the Zambezi, Erongo, Kunene, Ohangwena, Hardap, Omusati, and Kavango West regions.
