The NTC with this release has helped settle the dust and stress the fake news brought to teachers and the general public who took so much interest in the news.
Some teachers have however not spared the NTC as they vent their frustration on the institution on social media for failing to use the social media properly to keep in touch with teachers who are key stakeholders.
They called on the NTC to up its efforts and ensure the information channel is devoid of gaps that allow such fake messages to negatively impact candidates
