The acting governor, Hadiza Sabuwa Balarabe, who performed the official launching of the survey described the it as a thorough job well done, adding that it would help in no small measures to help government policies in the areas captured.

Earlier in her address, the commissioner Planning and Budget Commission, Hajiya Umma Aboki said, the goal of the survey was to provide up-to-date data on health and demographic indicators, particularly maternal and child health, fertility, family planning, and nutrition, at the state, zonal and LGA levels to meet the monitoring and evaluation needs of the SDGs and Kaduna State Development Plan.

She commended the governor  Malam Nasir el-Rufai for his political will in ensuring global standard of producing official statistics is institutionalized in the bureau which she said was second to none in the country, adding that through his guidance, the commission was able to identify opportunities and develop coping mechanisms including maximizing virtual capacity building, coordination, and integrated programming opportunities.

“I am delighted to announce to us that KDBS has successfully conducted the largest household survey ever organised by a sub national statistical agency in Nigeria. The survey utilized innovative methodologies and state of the art technology to generate estimates of indicators not only at state level but also at zonal and LGA levels. Findings from this survey confirm our resolve to deploy evidence-based decision making for the common good”.
