Mrs. Nwachukwu said her son on June 19, went to the centre for the exam as scheduled.
However, according to the woman, during the second paper, the generator set of the centre went off and the computer servers lost connection 30 minutes to into the exam.
Mrs. alleged that the examiner had no choice than to log out every candidate to enable for the repair of the generator set and reconnect the severs.
“All these took time to be fixed by the time they were through, the candidates were left with just three minutes and were thereafter asked to submit their papers”.
