At that time, the management of the university said that “the exercise was rescheduled following the rescheduling of the 2020 SSCE of NECO
“It is also in compliance with the directive from the Joint Admission and Matriculations Board (JAMB) that all institutions should conduct their post-UTME screening exercise after the completion of the 200 NECO examination.
