The National Examination Council (NECO) has postponed its scheduled and announced the rescheduling of the Paper 1 Computer Studies Practice, which was supposed to hold Monday. October 19, 2020 between 10am and 1pm.

The paper has now been rescheduled for Monday, November 16, 2020, between 10am and 1pm.

In a statement issued by the Head of Information and Public Relations Division of NECO on Sunday, Azeez Zani, titled, ‘Rescheduling of Paper I Computer Studies Practical in the ongoing 2020 SSCE’, said the decision was caused by the #EndSARS protests that blocked the free movement at the city entrance gate in Benin.

Zani said, “The NECO delivery truck had left its take-off point well in advance on Friday, October 16, 2020, earlier to deliver examination materials to some states and has been held up in the blockage since then.

“The council wishes to assure all stakeholders and the general public that the affected examination materials have been retrieved and are intact.”
