NECO withhold results in Niger

The National Examinations Council, NECO, has revealed that the Niger State Government owes the examination body N500m from unpaid examination fees of students.
Registrar of the Council, Dantani Wushishi, disclosed this during the release of the results of the 2022 Internal Senior Secondary Certificate Examinations in Minna, the state capital.
Wushishi confirmed that the examination body is withholding the results of all students in the state as a result of the debt owed by the state government.
The registrar added that he had advised the state government to separate the names of candidates who were self-sponsored from those sponsored by the government to enable them to access their results.
