The National Examinations Council (NECO) has announced that candidates will now be required to pay ₦50,000 for the reprinting of their certificates.
Naijaonpoint reports that this information was revealed by NECO Registrar, Dantani Wushishi in a statement made in Minna, Niger State.
Wushishi noted that the ₦50,000 fee for certificate reprints is subject to periodic review.
Furthermore, the council clarified that requests for certificate reprints will only be accepted within one year of the original certificate issuance. After this timeframe, NECO will not process such requests.
In conjunction with the new reprinting policy, NECO has established a one-month deadline for candidates wishing to correct their results. This deadline starts from the date the results are officially released, according to the council.
Before you begin, ensure you have the following:
– Your NECO Examination Number
– The Examination Year (e.g., 2024)
– A valid email address
– A NECO Result Checking Token (details on how to purchase this are provided below)
Step 1: Purchase Your NECO Result Checking Token

2. Click on ‘Purchase Token’.
3. If you already have an account, log in with your email and password. If not, create an account by clicking on ‘Register’ and entering your details.
4. Once logged in, click on ‘Purchase Token’ again and follow the instructions to make your payment.
5. Payment can be made using a debit card. After successful payment, the token will appear in your account under ‘My Tokens’.
Step 2: Access the NECO Result Checking Portal
Once you have your token, proceed to check your results:
1. Visit the NECO Result Checking Portal at [https://result.neco.gov.ng]
2. You will see a form on the homepage that needs to be filled out with your exam details.
Step 3: Enter Your Exam Details
Carefully fill in the form with the following details:
– Exam Year: Select 2024 (or the relevant year).
– Exam Type: Choose the correct exam type, e.g., SSCE Internal (JUN/JUL) or SSCE External (NOV/DEC).
– Token Number: Enter the token number you purchased in Step 1.
– Examination/Registration Number: Input your NECO examination number.
Finally, click on the “Check My Result” button to view your results.
By following these steps, you’ll be able to check your 2024 NECO results easily. Remember, tokens can only be used up to five times for the same result, and further verification will require the NECO E-Verify portal.
