The National Examinations Council (NECO) on Thursday released the results of the 2024 Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE).

Speaking at a press conference in Minna, the Niger State capital, NECO Registrar, Professor Dantani Wushishi, described this year’s result as the best in recent times.

1,367,736 representing 702,112 males and 665,624 females candidates eventually sat for the examination

Wushishi said 828,284 candidates representing 60.55 per cent got at least a credit in five subjects including English Language and Mathematics.

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.

The registrar gave the breakdown of the number of candidates with special needs as 1,542.

He said 1,104 candidates had hearing impairment, 348 candidates with visual impairment, 342 candidates with Albinism, 237 candidates with Autism and 236 candidates with low vision.

Hope rises for admission seekers

Meanwhile, the release of the result by NECO may have opened a new door of opportunity for admission seekers into tertiary institutions across the country.

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.
