Management and Staff of National Examinations Council (NECO) At Battlefield

Management and staff of National Examinations Council (NECO) are at each other’s throats. The bone of contention is the agitation for unionization by the staff, a move staunchly opposed to by the management.
The intervention of the Nigerian Labour Congress and Non-Academic Staff Union (NASU), Niger State branch; the state police command; the State Security Services (SSS) and the Emir of Minna, Alhaji Umaru Farouk Bahago, has not seen both parties shifting grounds.

Our correspondent gathered that the disagreement had lingered since 2005 in the matter of trade dispute No. IAP/HB/3744 between Non-Academic Staff Union of Education and Associated Institutions (NASU) and three other examination bodies, namely, Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), National Examinations Council (NECO) and National Business and Technical Examinations Board (NABTEB).
