The Uganda Bureau of Statistics (Ubos) has gone back to the drawing board to analyse the 2024 National Population and Housing Census report which was released on Thursday last week.

Ubos pulled down the main census report from its website following public outcry over contradicting figures that wrongly showed the population of Acholi as dropping from 2,131,443 to 1,941,913 while the Bagisu have fallen from 2,390,975 to 2,096,149.

Instead, the Bagisu population increased from 1,647,382 in 2014 to 2,096,149 people, and the Acholi from 1,470,884 in 2014 to 1,941,913 people.
