\n
The National Examinations Council (NECO) has indefinitely postponed the 2024 Staff Promotion Examination.<\/p>\n
The examination which was scheduled to hold on 14th and 15th February 2024 in Minna, Niger State had generated reactions.<\/p>\n
The exam body had directed its staff members eligible for promotion to appear at its headquarters from January 13, 2024, to January 15, 2024.<\/p>\n
However, the staff kicked against the development due to insecurity ravaging the country.<\/p>\n
A statement issued by Azeez Sani, Acting Director, Directorate of Information and Digital Communication on Friday said the postponement was in compliance with the directive of the Committee on Basic Examination Bodies of the House of Representatives.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Committee has also scheduled a meeting with the Registrar\/CE of
\nNECO, Prof. Dantani Ibrahim Wushishi for Monday, 19\u2033 February 2024.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith this development, all NECO Staff who are due for promotion this year should note that the exercise has been put on hold indefinitely,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
