The previous year, he said, similar percentage of the candidates recorded a similar feat.

“We are very thankful to God for this and to all those who made it possible.”

Wushishi said this year’s results were released exactly 55 days after the last paper was written.

SSCE result is one of the requirements for gaining admission into Nigerian tertiary institutions apart from the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) conducted by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB).

Apart from NECO, the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) also conducts examinations for senior secondary school students and since the release of WAEC results some months ago, many candidates who did not pass have awaited NECO results as alternatives.
