NECO
The National Examination Council has postponed its Computer Studies Practical examination fixed for Monday October 19, 2020 due to protests by youths against police brutality and other forms of injustice.
NECO said in a statement on Sunday that the exam would now hold on November 16.
The statement issued by the Head, Information and Public Relations Division at NECO, Azeez Sani, said the decision was taken because the #EndSARS protests were disrupting human and vehicular movement.
According to the examination body, the protest is also affecting the supply of examination materials.
It stated, “This is to inform the general public and especially candidates that the National Examinations Council (NECO) has been constrained to reschedule the Paper I Computer Studies Practicals earlier scheduled to take place on Monday 19 October 2020, 10am to 1pm.
“The examination of this paper will now hold on Monday 16 November 2020, 10 am-1 pm.
”This unforeseen incident has been caused by the EndSARS protest that blocked the free movement of transport at the City entrance gate Benin.”
