When will South Sudan 🇸🇸 results come out
I really respect our respective website and I also blessed its.
The 2023 national examinations of South Sudan was indeed written by the candidates on their own accord. There was no any kind of cheating as it usually happened in the previous years. The performance I have just seen here on the website are not that bad but they show resilience and determination from the candidates. I appreciate all the candidates who sat for 2023 national examinations all over South Sudan for having tried and past with flying colours which was not the expectations of many people and the candidates themselves. People were expecting many candidates to fail the exams and this wouldn’t have been accounted on the teachers but on the learners as academic failures because all learners in the Country wide developed a sense of relaxed habit in learning and always hope for what they haven’t toiled for.
