NECO postpones missed papers to 2021

The National Examinations Council has rescheduled its missed papers during the just concluded NECO exams to February 2021.

A statement by NECO Registrar, Mr Godswill Obioma, on Tuesday said the papers would be taken during the Senior School Certificate Examination holding between February 1 and March 3, 2021.

Some of the papers are Chemistry Paper 1, Commerce paper II and III, Economics and Technical drawing.

Students in Lagos, Bayelsa, Rivers, and Edo, among others, were prevented from taking the papers due to the EndSARS protests.

NECO said, “The management of the National Examinations Council has graciously approved that the Chemistry Paper I and Commerce Papers II and III postponed in the wake of the EndSARS protests be taken during the Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE external) holding between 1st February and 3rd March 2021.

“Candidates with any specific challenge involving Economics II & III and Technical Drawing I should take advantage of this opportunity.”
