2024 SSCE: NECO PAYS EXAMINERS’ ALLOWANCES IN FULL
On Wednesday, the National Examinations Council declared that it has finished paying the 72,138 examiners who were hired on an as-needed basis to administer the 2024 School-Based Senior School Certificate Examination their compensation.
This was revealed by the Council in a statement issued by the Acting Director of Public Relations and Information, Azeez Sani.
The announcement states that in order to promote simpler reconciliation and a more efficient payment procedure, NECO started making payments on a bank-by-bank basis on October 4, 2024. In accordance with the Council’s payment schedule, all examiners have received their allowances as of Wednesday, November 13, 2024.
The Council observed that some examiners had first given false bank information, which has since been updated. All 24 banks involved in the process have now cleared the payments.
“The Management advises that any individual engaged by the Council should seek clarification directly from NECO on matters that concern them before resorting to the media,” the statement read.
The Council reiterated its gratitude to its examiners and other ad hoc workers, emphasising that it will not disregard their rights and appreciates their contributions to the smooth operation of its examinations.
