The Federal Government has announced the release of the 2024 National Common Entrance Examination (NCEE) results for Unity Colleges and the Federal Government Academy (FGA) in Suleja.


The NCEE, which is for admission into Junior Secondary School (JSS 1) of Federal Unity Colleges, was conducted on Saturday, June 1, 2024, in Nigeria, Benin Republic, and Togo.


Minister of State for Education, Dr. Tanko Sununu, announced the results on Tuesday in Abuja. He stated that 71,291 candidates registered for the 2024 NCEE, with 66,931 candidates sitting for the examination and 4,360 candidates absent.


He revealed, “Out of the maximum obtainable score of 210, one candidate achieved the highest score of 203, while 13 candidates scored the lowest mark of 1.”


Dr. Sununu also noted that 52 candidates (2 from Lagos State and 50 from Rivers State) were involved in examination malpractice this year.


For the FGA examination, 2,649 candidates registered, 2,336 candidates sat for the exam, and 313 candidates were absent. “The highest score is 180, while the lowest is 5,” he added.


Commending Lagos for consistently having the highest number of candidates, with over 17,000 participants, Dr. Sununu also praised Zamfara for improving its participation from over 2,000 to over 4,000 candidates this year. He highlighted that the northern region, with about 18,000 participants, still lags behind, equaling Lagos' participation alone.


The Minister reiterated that the admission criteria for Federal Unity Colleges remain unchanged: 60% Merit, 30% Equality of State, and 10% Exigency.


“Now that the results have been released, the Senior Secondary Education Department should ensure that all admission processes are concluded timely and in line with the above criteria,” he emphasized.


Dr. Sununu assured parents that the government would continue to enhance infrastructural development, feeding, and teacher quality to ensure effective teaching and learning in the colleges.


He also commended the National Council of Examination (NECO) for conducting a credible examination, noting its wide acceptance.
