The letter of complaint written by the candidate to the board concerning his results was one of the three issues the board had chosen to address first. It was then discovered that he had checked his result three consecutive times via 55019 and was replied same with his original result which is 153, yet he insists that he did not know the one with 290 was fake. 

Adah Eche, who said that he wrote his UTME at Veritas University Centre, Bwari, also said that he was writing the examination for the first time. According to him, his result was delayed and was not released on time, so he posted on Facebook that he had not seen his result and another Facebook user decided to assist him to get the result.
