The minister said that private school owners were running a business venture and not a charity organisation.
He added that “for public institutions, we can’t tell you that we charge school fees, as most of our schools are free. Public schools are free and vary from state to state.
“So, it’s important that you appreciate that a private school is entitled to charge fees for the work they do. The person that runs a school may be passionate about education but will still charge fees.” He said “NECO examination will start on October 10, about a week to the end of NABTEB and run through to November.“We expect that throughout the period, students are working and learning.
“Right now, we are lifting the registration for NABTEB and NECO, continuously running, even while we are about to begin WAEC.
