Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that the National Examination Council (NECO) on Monday, June 17, said it was now prompt in releasing Senior Secondary School Certificate Examination (SSCE) results thereby making the processing of admission by universities for candidates less stressful.

Abubakar Gana, the acting registrar of NECO, said that this way, the body had broken the monopoly of WAEC, claiming that since its establishment in 1999, WAEC had had no choice but to live up to its responsibilities.

Gana said: “Since 2000, we have been conducting examinations and one advantage I want you to understand is that we have given WAEC a wakeup call and they are now living to their responsibility.

“You may recall that there were times in the past where universities and other tertiary institutions took very longer period for them to admit students.

“But with our coming, we started releasing results within 90 days, which is a period between three months. We started like that but as I am talking to you today, the last release we had was 43 days.”
