The Lagos State government, in collaboration with the National Population Commission (NPC), is set to commence the Electronic Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (ECRVS) program on September 2, 2024.
The initiative aims to modernize the process of birth registration and ensure accurate data collection for children across the state.
In preparation for this significant rollout, the NPC has begun training ad hoc registrars across various local government areas. Speaking at the opening of the training session at Kosofe Local Government, Mrs. Saidat Oladunjoye, the Federal Commissioner representing Lagos State, outlined the phased training approach. She noted that some councils have been merged for the training sessions, depending on their size and the number of volunteers available.
