RSG Recommits To Sponsoring Public Schools On 2020 NECO, NABTEB Exams
The Rivers State Government has reiterated its commitment to sponsor the application fees for public schools candidates writing the 2020 National Examinational Council (NECO) and the National Business and Technical Examination Board (NABTEB) examinations.
This was disclosed in a statement signed by the Director, Secondary Education, Mrs Sokari Davies on behalf of the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Education, Mr Chidi Adiele and made available to The Tide, Wednesday.
Adiele said; “In preparation for these examinations, having regards to the strict time-frames issued by the National Examining Bodies in collaboration with the Federal Ministry of Education, the Rivers State Ministry of Education earlier directed all Principals of public schools to make submission of their candidates latest August 28, 2020 to the Director of Secondary Education in the Ministry.
He explained that the deadline for the submission of their candidates was later extended to August 31, 2020.
“At the close of submissions by 6.30pm on August 31, 2020, only 199 schools had made their submissions of candidates to the ministry.
“These are the only ones that can be sponsored, as the Ministry of Education considers that other schools and candidates are not interested, he added.
The statement emphasised that the Ministry cannot reasonably wait to move on to the next stage of the process, which was concluded early on September 1, 2020, while urging parents, guardians and the general public to please take note.
