Areghan also stated that the exam body seized the results of 170,146 candidates for alleged involvement in exam malpractices.
He added that WAEC has already processed and released the results of 1,256,990 candidates, which represents 80.56% of those who sat for the exam in Nigeria.
Areghan also said that WAEC is still processing the results of 303,271 candidates, which represents 19.44% of the total figure that took the exam in the country.
The WAEC head disclosed that the delay was due to the fact that some of the candidates have issues with their subjects.
Areghan also said the result checker pin and serial number that candidates need to check their results online are already contained in the candidate smart identity card that was used for the exam.
