Uwakwe has been on suspension since 2018 and Mr Abubakar Gana has been the acting Registrar of the exam body since then.

Uwakwe was accused of violating the Public Procurement Act (2007) and pursuant to PSR 030402 and Part 1 schedule 4 (i) of the NECO Establishment Act. It was alleged that Uwakwe and some top officials of the council allegedly awarded contracts in the council to the tune of N25billion without following due process.
