The practice of Students in Senior Secondary School 1 and 2 enrolling for the West African Examination Council, WAEC, National Examination Council, NECO and National Business and Technical Examinations Board, NABTEB, examinations externally has become history. The Federal Government has put a ban on it.

A circular distributed by the Federal Ministry of Education to Principals of Federal Unity Schools across the country, informing them of the new directives, stated that the Government will expel offenders from their schools with immediate effect.
