The National Examinations Council has announced the indefinite postponement of its 2024 staff promotion examination.
The national examination body disclosed this in a statement signed by its acting Director, Directorate of Information and Digital Communication, Azeez Sani, in a letter dated February 9, 2024.
However, NECO informed all its staff who are due for promotion this year that the exercise has been put on hold after intervention by the House of Representatives following fear over insecurity.
The promotion examination was earlier scheduled to hold on February 14 and 15, 2024 in Minna, Niger State.
“The postponement is in compliance with the directive of the Committee on Basic Examination Bodies of the House of Representatives as contained in a letter referenced NASS/HR/10/CT.20/64 dated 9th February, 2024 and signed by the Chairman of the Committee, Hon. Oboku Abonsizibe Oforji.
“With this development, all NECO Staff who are due for promotion this year, should note that the exercise has been put on hold indefinitely.”
