The National Examinations Council (NECO) yesterday blacklisted 29 supervisors for various malpractice offenses during the just-concluded 2022 internal Senior Secondary School Certificate Examination (SSCE).
It was alleged that the supervisors aided and abetted examination malpractices through poor supervision and insults.
The NECO Registrar/Chief Executive Officer, Prof. Dantani Ibrahim Wushishi, announced the results at the NECO headquarters yesterday in Minna, the Niger State capital.
He also said that four schools were recommended for de-recognition for two years due to their involvement in mass cheating.
According to the registrar, the number of students who made five Credits and above, including Mathematics and English Language, is 727,894, representing 60.74 percent.
He added that the figure showed a decrease of 10.9 percent from what was recorded in 2021.
Wushishi also said malpractice incidence in 2022 had dropped, compared to what happened in 2021.
