The National Examinations Council (NECO) has appealed to state governments to pay the examination fees of their candidates who sat for the Senior Secondary Certificate Examination (SSCE) in order to release their results.
The council made the appeal in a statement by its Head, Information and Public Relations Division, Azeez Sani.
Sani revealed that all ad-hoc staff comprising 18,243 supervisors, 887 assistant supervisors and 65,159 examiners who were involved in the conduct of the examination for school-based candidates had been fully paid.
“The management appreciates the invaluable contributions of the supervisors and examiners in the success story of the council over the years, and reiterates its determination to strengthen the existing cordial relationship between them,” the statement said.
It would be recalled that the Registrar/Chief Executive, Prof. Dantani Ibrahim Wushishi, had on October 29 announced the release of the results of the 2021 SSCE.
