Borno appeals to WAEC, NECO to release results

The Borno Government has appealed to West African
Examination Council and National Examination Council to
release the results of its candidates who sat for the 2014
examinations.
The Permanent Secretary, state Ministry of Education, Alhaji
Mohammed Kauji, made the appeal in Maiduguri while
briefing newsmen on Sunday.
Kauji said that the state had cleared all the outstanding
registration fees for the candidates who sat for the
examinations in the state.
He expressed dismay over the inability of the candidates to
access their results since it was released.
“I want to plead with both WAEC and NECO to release the
result of Borno candidates who sat for the 2014
examinations.
“This is because the state government had on September
29 cleared all outstanding fees relating to the
examinations.
“We were surprised to hear that the results of our
candidates were not displayed on the website of both WAEC
and NECO even after making all the payments.
“The situation has created anxiety among the candidates
and their parents as they tried to access the results in
vain,” he said.
Kauji commended Gov. Kashim Shettima for facilitating the
release of funds for the payment of the registration fees.
He called on the two exam bodies to hasten the release of
the results to enable interested candidates secure
admission into higher institutions.
The scribe also commended parents and the affected
candidates for their patience and understanding over the
issue.
