The Independent Uganda: You get the Truth we Pay the Price
Kampala, Uganda | THE INDEPENDENT | The Uganda National Bureau of Statistics (UBOS), has revealed that only people with smartphones and mobile money numbers registered in their names will be recruited to enumerate in the national population census.
Uganda is set to carry out its 6th national population census on the night of the 9th leading to May 10th, 2024. More than 120,000 enumerators will be recruited.
Giving an update on the preparedness for the exercise on Thursday, Chris Mukiza, the UBOS Executive Director, said that the census will be digitized, including payments of the enumerators to avoid costs of middlemen.
“All the people we are going to work with must have mobile money numbers registered in their names not those of their relatives, friends, or neighbors. If you don’t have a number registered in your name we shall not pay you through any other person’s number, ” Mukiza emphasized.
Mukisa also added that tablets and smartphones should have the capacity to hold the enumeration data and other requirements.
According to Mukiza, UBOS will work with the local governments in the recruitment process of the enumerators, specifically to mobilize people to apply, but the appointment will be conducted at the UBOS headquarters to avoid corruption tendencies. “We are yet to set all the conditions required for an enumerator, but it will soon be set and it’s here at the headquarters where the final selection will be made according to those conditions,” he said.
Mukiza said that each enumerator is expected to count 50 to 80 households.
Information from UBOS indicates that preparation for the census stands at 90.3 percent with 50 districts having complete clean data, 58 districts, and cities at 90 percent, 18 districts above 80 percent, and the rest below 70 percent. These exclude the districts of Kampala, Mukono, and Wakiso, whose works are yet to start and require different strategies due to the population structure.
Mukisa also revealed that the first batch of tablets that will be used in the census is expected early next month.

My thumb print is not clear so my mobile number is in my wife’s name
My suggestion is since someone had sent the phone number on the application it means he or she is sure of it so if it means paying you just put the money on that very number minus missing any number there will be no complaints at all.
Why is the CEO emphasizing the issue of the mobile money number being registered in your own name. Some of us the finger thumbs failed to be captured. What can I do if I have been shortlisted
How much money will the emulators get paid?

Great to Uganda to have digital census
Anyway the digital way of applying for a job and paying is good, but my worry is those people without IT background shall be left behind.
Can I change the phone number now coz I used that of my mum is it possible to change now
Some can address the applicants, how enumerators are needed per village?
It’s sad that most of the work in ubos this time have been taken by the civil servants and the majority have been left out in the recruitment exercise, why was it left open even to the civil servants.
