NECO warns against proxy registration, combats impersonation with biometric data and e-Verify platform.

The National Examinations Council (NECO) in Nigeria warns against proxy registration for its exams, citing risks of identity theft and fake results. To combat impersonation, NECO uses biometric data capturing, customized answer booklets, and embosses candidates' details on certificates. The NECO e-Verify platform allows for online result verification. School owners are urged to register only genuine candidates; those who impersonated in the 2024 examinations had their results withheld.
