The Ogun State Government has postponed the 2021/2022 common entrance examination into the 42 public secondary schools in the state. The exam, initially billed for 17 July has now been shifted to 14 August.

The state Commissioner for Education, Science and Technology, Prof. Abayomi Arigbabu made the announcement in a statement released in Abeokuta. According to the statement, the exam was postponed because the time given for the collection and submission of the forms is short and there are demands for an extension of the date.

The commissioner urged the candidates that had registered to use the opportunity of the postponement to prepare well for the examination.

He further called on parents and guardians of the applicants to contact Zonal Education Offices across the state or call 07039286801 and 08039406891.
