The suspended 2008/2009 National Examination Council's (NECO) Senior Secondary Certificate Examinations (SSCE) will commence on Wednesday.
P.M.News gathered that the examination, which was suspended over a month ago due to the nationwide strike embarked upon by the Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT), has been rescheduled to commence in two days' time.
Confirming this to P.M.News, Proprietor of De-Apex Schools, Agege, Sankara Adeyemi, said the examinations will begin on Wednesday with Chemistry practical.
'It is a good development and we are happy that at last, the students will be allowed to finish their exams,' he said. Some of the students who spoke with P.M.News, however, expressed happiness over the development.
According to Mary Oyelola, a student of Babs Fafunwa Millennium Secondary School, Ojodu: 'The strike has actually delayed our academic calendar. By now, we should be concentrating on the GCE which is fast-approaching, but it is unfortunate that we still need to tackle NECO first.'
