NECO Releases New Timetable, Resumes SSCE Monday

The National Examinations Council (NECO) has announced the
suspended 2020 Senior School Certificate Examinations (SSCE) will
restart nationwide next Monday.

The examinations were temporarily suspended owing to the
#EndSARS protests, which disrupted movement of materials
nationwide.

Head of Information and Public Relations Division, NECO, Azeez
Sani disclosed this in a statement on Monday in Abuja.

The statement reads: “The National Examinations Council (NECO)
wishes to inform candidates, schools and other stakeholders of the
resumption of the 2020 Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE)
in all states and the FCT from Monday 9th November 2020.

“The Council was constrained to postpone the examinations
indefinitely on Monday 25th October 2020 due to security challenges
occasioned by the ENDSARS protests, which disrupted the smooth
conduct of the examinations in some parts of the Country.

“Following the return of normalcy in the states and FCT, the
examinations will now continue with a new Time-Table from Monday
9th November, 2020 to Saturday 28th November, 2020.

“This new Time-Table will be made available to the general
public, schools and candidates from Wednesday 4th November, 2020.
The Time-Table can also be seamlessly downloaded from the NECO

“The Council thanks the general public and candidates for their
patience and understanding during the period the SSCE was
suspended. NECO assures the general public of quality service in
the discharge of her statutory responsibilities at all times.”
