The Registrar of the National Examination Council (NECO ), Prof. Promise Okpala, has announced that the Basic Education Certificate, French Language and Business Studies examinations initially scheduled to hold on May 8 and May 9 will now hold on Saturday May 10, Friday May 23, and Saturday May 24, respectively.

According to him this is as a result of the closure of public institutions in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

Okpala said there is improvement in this year’s enrollment with 110,316 candidates enrolling.

According to him this is an indication that Nigerians still see the importance of education even in the face of the current challenges.
