"Any one without these academic documents should confirm whether the biodata was approved and submitted to the transcript unit. If this continues,we shall remain with no option other than publishing these institutions in the media. Let's work as partners and let's engage at all times,"the statement read.
The board stated that it's secretariat does not issue academic documents to students therefore there is no need to refer them to the department.
"We thank all heads of centres who have paid up and picked all documents. The board encourages individual heads of centres to follow up and engage the secretariat on paying up pending debts,"the statement notes.
The board said it continues to aim at enabling candidates to access their academic documents in a timely manner at all times.
