237,154 candidates that sat the examination, ‎ 79,490 candidates, representing 33.51% obtained 6 credits and above.”He, also noted that  113,573 candidates, representing 47.88% obtained 5 credits. But declined to mention the subjects where candidates had credits pass. Adenipekun who declined to disclosed statistics of English and Mathematics, argued that releasing the statistics of candidates who had credit pass in English Language and Mathematics is not necessary because the WASSCE is for private candidates who need few subjects credited  to make up their results.Asked if he is aware that many institutions accept a single five credits result ‎ including English and Mathematics, he maintained: “You cannot evaluate candidates performance based on its score in English and Mathematics.” However, in its breakdown of the 2015‎ WASSCE results, he said:” Of the total number of candidates that sat the examination, 79,490 candidates, representing 33.51% obtained 6 credits and above; 113,573 candidates, representing 47.88% obtained 5 credits.
