Aspirants of the Federal University of Technology, Owerri who participated in the post-UTME screening exercise which commenced yesterday could not hide their disappointment over the level of disorderliness experienced.
The Screening exercise which was expected to commence as early as 8.00am as stated in the candidates' acknowledgement slips ended up being a night affair.
According to one of the candidates, “I was frustrated, on my slip, exam time says 8am, I was there by 7:45am after verifications we entered the hall by 12:00 noon, waited till 6pm until the papers arrived, started by 6:30pm.”
Another aspirant said the exam paper got to them few minutes to 7pm, there was no light in the hall so they had to improvise with their phones and candles.
A source however, said the reason for this is the fact that the examination questions leaked and the school management had to make another arrangement to ensure the credibility of the exercise.
None of the authorities has commented on this at the time of filling this report.
