According to Patrick Areghan, the Head of the National Office, WASSCE results of candidates from eight states of the federation were withheld over their indebtedness to the council, Vanguard reports.

In a press briefing in Lagos on Monday, Areghan was mum on listing all the states owing but mentioned that Zamfara and Niger were the highest debtors. He expressed optimism that some of the states would soon pay up.

His words:

“I need to restate that the results of candidates sponsored by states indebted to the Council will not be released now until they pay up. We appeal to them to do so to enable the affected schools/candidates to access their results.”
