  "summary": "JAMB and WAEC have set the fee for O’Level result verification at N4,000, applicable once during the tertiary admission process. This was announced in a joint statement issued in Abuja, as reported by NAN. Candidates will now be able to verify their WAEC results via JAMB, after which the verified result will be made available to their institutions for screening and admission processing. The N4,000 fee is to be paid through the JAMB platform, removing the need for candidates to pay again at their tertiary institutions. This arrangement aims to prevent candidates from having to repeat the verification process for different institutions, thereby reducing errors, fraudulent certificates, and misplaced paper results.",
