Jigawa govt blames failed bank transfer for delay in NECO results

The Jigawa State Government has pointed the finger at a failed bank transaction involving payment to the National Examinations Council (NECO) for the delay in releasing the results of students in public secondary schools. Prof. Isa Chamo, the State Commissioner for Higher Education, explained this during a reaction to the prolonged wait for the NECO results.

He stated that the issue arose due to a banking problem that resulted in the return of funds paid to NECO. Chamo said the state government immediately took steps to rectify the situation and reprocessed the payment. Following NECO's confirmation of receipt of the payment, the matter was fully resolved, allowing students to access their results through the NECO portal.

The commissioner urged students, parents, and guardians to remain calm, emphasizing that the state government had settled all outstanding examination fees and resolved the issue with NECO. He reaffirmed the administration of Governor Umar Namadi's commitment to the education sector, assuring that no student would be left behind.

NECO had released the 2027 Senior School Certificate Examination results on September 24, 2027, but candidates in public schools in Jigawa were unable to access their results for several days.
