The National Examinations Council, NECO, has alerted members of the public to the existence of fake online portals purportedly recruiting Examination Supervisors for the 2026 Senior School Certificate Examination, SSCE, Internal.
The alert was issued on Tuesday by NECO’s Acting Director of Information and Public Relations, Azeez Sani.
According to NECO, the fake portals had requested interested members of the public to log in with details of their academic credentials after making payments.
“NECO wishes to inform the public that the Council does not request for any payment from teachers applying to serve as examination Supervisors in the forthcoming 2026 Senior School Certificate Examination, SSCE, Internal,” Sani stated.
NECO said it has transitioned from the analogue mode of recruitment to a fully electronic process in line with recommendations of the Ministerial Committee on the Improvement of Quality of Examination in Nigeria.
Consequently, all qualified pensionable teachers on Grade Level 12 and above who are not less than 30 years of age and are interested in serving as Supervisor in the 2026 SSCE Internal should apply on the NECO website: https://supervisor.neco.gov.ng.
“It should be noted that the supervisor recruitment on NECO website is fully automated and no third party is required,” the statement said.
NECO added that the new system will prevent fraud, curb examination malpractice, and enhance fairness and credibility in the recruitment process.
No fewer than 22,000 supervisors will be recruited by the Council to ensure a seamless conduct of the 2026 SSCE Internal, which is scheduled to commence on 15th June, 2026.
