I think "v023" is the wrong stratification variable. Strata are defined in v022 according to the recode manual - http://dhsprogram.com/pubs/pdf/DHSG4/Recode5DHS_23August2012 .pdf

You can also see in the final report that stratification was done by urban/rural and then by 7 administrative divisions, so you could generate your own stratification variable and then check it against v023 to confirm (see page 5 of the introduction).
