Written by on July 13, 2022
Paul Edeh, the proprietor, Naija Ratels FC, a women football league club, has urged the government to facilitate and ensure the availability of accurate database through a viable census.
This is contained in a statement he issued on Tuesday in Abuja, to mark the 2022 World Population Day, which is celebrated every July 11.
It was marked with a novelty match between his team and FCT selected side.
The match which was played at the Area 3 football pitch saw the FCT team featuring some female coaches and sports journalists.
The encounter ended 2-0 in favour of Naija Ratels FC.
The event also produced ‘the Most Gorgeous Girl Nigeria,’ in the person of Queen Esther Abimbola, while Rukayyah Mikayal emerged as the first runner-up.
Edeh said that the country has a lot of people who pay lip service to weightier matters, and make things of little or no consequences a priority.
Edeh stressed that accurate data will enable the government to plan and ensure wealth distribution.
