The Minister of Education to announce the cancellation of the interview test for National Common Entrance Examination (NCCE) into Federal Government colleges

A statement issued by the
Federal Ministry of Education
on Monday in Abuja said the
cancellation of the test for
NCCE would take effect from
the 2017/2018 academic year.
The statement signed by the
Deputy Director, Press, Bem
Goong, said the minister
could not establish the
rationale for a second test for
NCCE organised by the
National Examination
Council (NECO).
“The second test is an
unnecessary additional
financial burden on parents/
guardians,” it quoted Mr.
Adamu as saying.
“The era of multiple
examinations attracting
prohibitive fees cannot be
accommodated by the Buhari
administration, especially
against the backdrop of
government’s determination
to increase access to
education as a platform for
breaking the cycle of
poverty.’’
The statement said Mr.
Adamu had directed NECO to
strengthen its examination
processes with a view to
achieving quality and
credible examination for
admission into unity schools
at the first test.
It said the minister argued
that multiple examinations
did not necessarily translate
to the admission of quality
pupils in secondary schools.
The statement said Mr.
Adamu maintained that the
2016/2017 academic year
remained the effective date
for the ban on Post-UTME,
advising vice-chancellors to
adhere strictly to the policy
in the overriding public
interest.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State has rubbished claim by President Muhammadu Buhari that there is no evidence of corruption against his appointees. Lagos PDP, in a statement on Sunday by its publicity secretary, Taofiq Gani, accused Buhari of shielding his “corrupt” ministers because of their financial contributions to his election. Calling names of those who have serious allegations, the statement noted that, “These are in the public glare and we are surprised that the president exhibits volte-face on these matters. “For instance, Fashola has many corruption petitions against him during and after his tenure as governor of Lagos State. “Groups such as True Face of Lagos, CACOL and individuals have their petitions unattended to by the authorities,” he said. “The reported outcome of enquiry, which indicted Rotimi Amaechi, of unaccounted sum of N3 trillion, when he was governor of Rivers State, is lying unattended to by the authorities and Chris Ngi...
