The Federal Government has announced a bold initiative to migrate all O’Level examinations conducted by the National Examinations Council (NECO) and the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) to Computer-Based Testing (CBT) within the next three years.
This strategic move aims to enhance security and integrity in Nigeria’s examination system.
Dr. Tunji Alausa, the Minister of Education, through the Director, Press and Public Relations, Federal Ministry of Education, Boriowo Folasade, conveyed this in a statement on Friday in Abuja.
“One of the key decisions at the meeting was the transition of all examinations (achievement and placement) into a CBT platform within the next three years, ensuring a more secure and efficient examination process.
“This is a significant step towards building a robust and credible examination system for Nigeria. We are moving swiftly to protect the future of our education system and ensure that our students’ achievements are recognised fairly and accurately,” the minister stated.
