Data are needed to make informed decision in every facet of life. Also, for any government to make remarkable success in terms of national planning and development, there is need for good and reliable data. However, obtaining data on sensitive issues is difficult as many respondents may refuse or give false response when direct method is used. This leads to bias in data collection and to correct this bias,the paper presents Randomized Response Technique (RRT) as a solution to obtaining reliable data in sample survey and censuses. Practical applications show that RRT is more efficient than the traditional/direct method of data collection. Hence, RRT is recommended in place of direct method of data collection especially for sensitive questions
