NECO warns against proxy enrollment

The National Examinations Council has warned School owners and other relevant stakeholders to desist from enrolling candidates for its examinations by proxy.
The Council made this known in a statement released on Monday which was signed by the Acting Director, information and public relations, Azeez Sani.
Sani noted that it, “observed that such fraudulent practice often results in identity theft and subsequent parade of fake results.”
Speaking further, NECO noted that it is now determined to eradicate all forms of examination malpractice.
“The Council has put in place some measures to check impersonation in all its examinations. Some of the measures include the use of a Biometric Data Capturing Device, the use of customized answer booklets and the embossing of the photograph and date of birth of candidates on the original certificates.
“Also, the NECO e-Verify, an online platform for Confirmation/ Verification of NECO Results was unveiled last year.”
The Council also enjoined to note that any certificate purported to have been issued by the Council and “which cannot be verified or authenticated using the NECO e-Verify platform, is fake.”
“The Council therefore calls on State Ministries of Education and other School owners to ensure that only personal details of genuine candidates are used for registration in all NECO-conducted examinations.
“Meanwhile, candidates that were found culpable of impersonation in the just released 2024 Senior School Certificate Examination Internal had their results withheld.
“This measure is part of the Council’s robust policy to check all forms of examination malpractice,” Sani added.
