The Head of National Office of WAEC, Mr Olu Adenipekun announced this at a news briefing in Lagos.

He explained that while ninety- three point five one per cent of the total candidates that sat the examination had their results fully released, six point four nine per cent of them still have a few of their subjects still being processed due to errors traceable to the candidates in the course of registration or writing the examination.

Mr Adenipekun called on candidates that had fully fulfilled their financial obligations to the council to check their results online.
