Only on Friday last week, the examination body announced the rescheduling of one of its Examinations papers due to inability of its distribution van to deliver examination materials to some states due to the nationwide #EndSARS protests.

NECO had in a statement in Minna on Sunday by the head Information Unit, Mallam Azeez Sani said the Computer Studies Practicals paper 1 earlier scheduled to have taken place on Monday 19 October 2020, 10am to 1pm was rescheduled for Monday 16 November 2020, for the same time.

Mallam Azzez gave reason for the rescheduling of the Examinations to blockage on free movement of vehicles at the City entrance gate in Benin, the Edo state capital, hence the inability of the council vehicle to deliver the papers for today (Monday) Examinations.

Although the examinations body managed to conduct its Economic paper on Tuesday and Physic practical on Wednesday, some states considered volatile as a result of the ongoing protests were excluded from the examinations.

NECO however said that “the papers will be written between 17th to 19th November after computer practical paper on the 16th”.
