On the states that are owing the council, the WAEC boss said that a few of the debtor states responded by paying their debts fully or partially while a few others made promises, indicating their willingness to pay as soon as they are able to do so.
He stated that the results of debtor-States’ candidates would be released if such States endeavour to produce bank guarantees (APGs), so that the Council will be assured that the fees will be paid.
This decision, he said, is in appreciation of the general prevailing economic challenges in the country and in order not to jeopardize the educational careers of the candidates of the indebted states.
