He said the Committee’s decisions will be communicated to the affected candidates in due course.
Announcing the release of the results, Mr. Adenipekun, said there was a significant improvement in the performance of candidates when compared with last year’s results.He attributed the improvement to better commitment on the side of the students, teachers and governments at all levels.Adenipekun however warned that individual candidates or some state governments that were still indebted to the council may not have access to the council’s website for their results.
