The National Examinations Council (NECO) has announced reason why it temporary shutdown of all its examination portals, citing scheduled maintenance, reports Business Today NG.
NECO,which did not state how long the maintenance would last or when the portals would be restored, urged users to remain patient while the upgrade is ongoing.
The notice, published on the Council’s official website, affects candidates and institutions accessing examination-related services.
The announcement posted on the NECO website reads: “All our examination portals will be temporarily unavailable due to scheduled maintenance. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience.”
Recall that prior to this latest announcement; several users had already experienced prolonged downtime on NECO’s website.
For over a week, students attempting to check results, process admission documents, or complete verification have been unable to access the platform.
In particular, Nigerian students who secured university admission abroad have faced challenges verifying their NECO results due to the platform’s unavailability. This has caused delays in meeting international school deadlines for document submission and document confirmation.
