No work is done in moving a test charge over an equipotential surface, why?

No work is done in taking a positive charge from one point to other inside a positive charged metallic sphere, while outside the sphere work is done in taking the charge from one point to other (towards the sphere). Explain.

From the following statements for an equipotential surface, the incorrect statement is

Work done in moving a positive charge on an equipotential surafce is
