“Out of this, we have 10,636 that passed which is about 72.9 per cent and those that failed are 3,963,’’ he said.


Ajiboye also said that other candidates were absent at the examination while others had their results cancelled due to examination malpractices.


He assured that the Council would continue to work towards the improvement of the teaching profession in Nigeria.
