The Ogun state government has postponed the 2021/2022 entrance examination into the 42 flagship public secondary schools in the state to August 14.
According to NAN, Abayomi Arigbabu, the state commissioner for education, science, and technology, broke the news in a statement to journalists on Friday.
The exam was earlier slated for Saturday, July 17.
According to the statement, the commissioner attributed the postponement to the demand by prospective students.
“We realised that the time given for the collection and submission of the form is very short and there are demands for an extension of the date, hence the postponement,” it read.
The commissioner implored the candidates that had registered to use the opportunity of the postponement to prepare well for the exam.
He also urged parents and guardians of the applicants to contact zonal education offices across the state, call 07039286801/08039406891 or visit the website: ogmoest.ogunstate.gov.ng for enquiries and clarifications.
