Can he get someone the to write a letter stating that the college knows there is an error on the form and that the correction will take X money and Y time. Even if that causes them to ask him to return with it corrected it may prevent a denial. IF it is impossible try to get someone there to document that it is impossible to make changes to the form after so many years. I suspect they are looking for more "tipping" to get things straight. When work does your friend do ? maybe he doesn't need it as the qualification if he has enough time in a O listed profession.

No matter the work and qualification one does and has, WAEC is essential and its verified at the embassy

He would be needing to go with the original waec certificate,scratch card for verification.

If he has NECO result, let him present it,other than the WAEC.

Suspicion comes when error is noticed in result.

D only certificate he has !$ d waec, he was also told waec doesn't issue d certificate 4 d 2nd time.

I believe in most forums it is etiquette to use proper words rather than texting abbreviations.

if all his other documents show his correct birthday, that will not be an issue. He could bring his birth certificate, driver licence, any other document with hsi birth date on and and explain the discrepancy. People make error on documents all them time even in America, they also ask you to look and you issue document and notify them if there is any error. Error is human
