Token: Why Nigeria Students Should Boycott NECO Exam

Recently, the policy in the picture below was introduced by NECO, while it is not a bad idea to introduce E-verification, the fact that checking of results are only restricted to just one token is condemnable.

The use of token for checking result is quite different from result verification, lots of students who have misplaced their token can no longer buy a new token to check their result.

Many higher institutions make use of tokens/ scratch card to generate results on their portal, that process of generating results on the portal is no longer possible for holders of NECO result as a lot of them have misplaced the token that was linked to their result.

If this policy by NECO is not reversed, the best thing for students who will be writing SSCE in the comings years to do is to boycott NECO since their are other options available to them like WAEC and NABTEB.
