The National Examinations Council (NECO) blacklisted 21 supervisors in 12 states for poor supervision, aiding and abetting abscondment, extortion, drunkenness, and negligence.
The Registrar/Chief Executive of NECO, Professor Dantani Wushishi, disclosed this on Thursday while briefing newsmen at the organization’s headquarters in Minna, Niger State.
Wushishi also said that NECO has de-recognized one school in Ekiti State for mass cheating in two core subjects and one science subject.
He said the supervisors were recommended for blacklisting due to poor supervision, aiding and abetting abscondment, extortion, drunkenness, and negligence.
“Forty schools were found to have been involved in whole-school mass cheating in 17 states adding that the schools will be invited to the council for discussion after which appropriate sanctions will be applied,” Wushishi added.
