The National Examinations Council, NECO, has alerted the public to the activities of fraudsters operating fake online recruitment portals designed to deceive teachers seeking appointment as examination supervisors for the 2026 Senior School Certificate Examination, SSCE, Internal.
In a statement issued on Tuesday by its Acting Director of Information and Public Relations, Azeez Sani, the examination body warned members of the public, particularly teachers, to disregard websites demanding payments or personal details under the guise of recruiting supervisors.
According to the council, the fraudulent portals have been requesting applicants to upload academic credentials and make payments before being considered for appointment, a practice NECO described as false, illegal and unauthorised.
