The National Examinations Council (NECO) has debunked rumour that it has postponed the 2020 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) and Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) due to the lockdown in various parts of the country.
NECO spokesman, Azeez Sani, denied the rumour via a statement on Wednesday.
The statement read: “NECO wishes to state categorically that apart from the 2020 National Common Entrance (NCEE) that was postponed indefinitely due to the outbreak of COVID-19, the council has not reviewed any of its remaining examinations, neither is the council contemplating such for now.
“The general public is urged to disregard such fake news, as the council is monitoring the prevailing situation in the country and will make official pronouncement on the examinations if the need arises.”
