A total of 25,781 candidates registered for this year’s National Common Entrance Examination (NCEE) in Lagos.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the examination was for admission into the 104 Unity Colleges across the country.
The Lagos State Zonal Coordinator, National Examinations Council (NECO), Mr Gbenga Olapade, organisers of the examination, told NAN in an interview on Saturday that a total of 115 centres were being used for the examination across the state.
Olapade said that there were additional four centres for this year’s examination when compared with 111 centres used for the same examination in 2015.
According to him, from the additional centres, simple logic showed that more candidates registered for the examination in 2016.
Olapade said that it was expected that even with a large number of candidates, not all were being expected to sit for the examination as a result of one factor or the other.
