Here are a few opportunities we missed in the census

The census was a great opportunity to gather the data necessary for the achievement of the Big Four Agenda.
We could have captured such data as household income, unique digital address, insurance cover and conducted the country’s skill inventory.
The use of electronic capture, a first in Kenya’s census, was innovative to say the least, but we should have taken advantage to address one of the most critical problems in the country.
We can make do with what was captured but future census should take into consideration many important variables.
