The National Examinations Council (NECO) has officially released the results of the 2026 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE).
A total of 126,291 candidates registered for the examination, which was conducted in 12 subjects from April 20 to April 30, 2026.
The Acting Director of Information and Public Relations, Azeez Sani, announced the release in a statement on Thursday. He noted that the Award Committee, chaired by Folake David (Director of Basic Education at the Federal Ministry of Education), who represented the Minister of Education, Dr. Maruf Alausa, approved the results following a meeting at NECO’s headquarters in Minna, Niger State.
The committee also set the 2026 BECE re-sit examination for July 22 and 23, 2026, specifically for Mathematics and English Studies. Candidates with conditional deficiencies in one or both subjects can use this opportunity to remedy their results. This allows them to obtain the necessary certification for admission into Senior Secondary School (SSS1)
