Only 1,393 of the 2,125 candidates of the Nigerian Law School are successful, according to the result released yesterday.
The Director-General, Nigerian Law School, Olarewaju Onadeko, made this known in a statement on Saturday.
The August/September 2016 Law School examination recorded 17.8 per cent failure rate.
A similar examination conducted in April 2016 recorded 23.6 per cent failure rate, as 709 candidates out of 3, 056 of those who sat for that batch of the final examination, did not make the pass mark.
Potential candidates to the bar must sit and pass the final examination by the school, while complying with other provisions of the Legal Practitioners Act to be qualified for the call to bar.
