The newly-appointed Acting Registrar/Chief Executive Officer of the National Business and Technical Examinations Board (NABTEB), Dr. Nnasia Asanga, has announced the release of the 2024 in-school National Business Certificate (NBC) and National Technical Certificate (NTC) examinations’ results.
The results were released after 63 days, in line with the renewed hope agenda of President Bola Tinubu.
He disclosed this at NABTEB’s headquarters at Ikpoba Hill, Benin.
Asanga stated that releasing the results after 63 days was an unprecedented milestone while noting that the board intended to further reduce the duration for the release of results in future examinations.
He said: “This achievement is a testament to the management’s unwavering commitment and resilience to the advancement of education, including Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET).
