1. If you graduated from OAU anytime from 2008 backwards, just remove the idea of "I need my transcript urgently" from your mind, it's never coming anytime soon if it's coming at all. So the longer ago it is that you graduated, the most likely your results are not on the current database in use or not completely on it. If you graduated in the early 2000's, in the 90's, 80's and 70's, your results are definitely on papers only, and a lot of these papers have been lost or misplaced during use to get other people's results or during porting from one office to another. Transcript production is impossible if your results can't be found or no one is even trying to look for them, then you need someone on campus to take request to your department for your result.

2. If you graduated from any department in Health Sciences in OAU or Pharmacy, your case is close to number 1 above, only that you still have more hope of getting your transcript, it may only take years if no one is running the errands for you. Reason for this is because Health Sciences and Pharmacy for some reasons don't deliver their individual results to the Exams and Records they just send the number of graduating students and what they are graduating with (this is not a fact, but if it's wrong the fact cannot be too far away from it).Health Sciences and Pharmacy for some reasons hold on to their own results, and they try to make sure every student in their departments get a piece of their results signed by their HOD before graduating, so they can use it when they need to process their transcripts. So for this, when you graduate and apply for your transcript online for the school's Transcript Department to produce, they have no results they would use to produce a transcript for you. Normally, someone from the Transcript Department was supposed to visit your Faculty/College and go process your results from there and get them to the Transcripts Department for the production of your transcript to begin proper, but no OAU staff has. that time for such visit. So even if someone is going to get up and go do this for you at your Faculty/College, just know it wouldn't be that fast, this is why it may take forever before your transcript is delivered.

3. If you transferred between departments, forget it, your results can't be generated on the new database; someone would have to go to your department to collate your results from papers, and no OAU staff wants to do this. So stop wondering why you have applied for your transcript since 19BC but it's still at "Payment Received". If you took a Leave of Absence, even if your results are found and collated and your transcripts produced, it would still get stuck at the level of approval because the office to approve it would want to see the letter that approved the Leave of Absence you took, and most student don't remember to take this letter to the Exams and Records for them to keep it in their file after they have gotten the approval for the leave, they just give it to their department (that would not keep it) or hold on to it themselves and lose it. If you had extra year/semester, you most probably failed multiple courses while you're in school, so your results are scattered everywhere around different sessions that's not yours normally; OAU staff don't have the time to be fetching for scattered results like that. If you didn't complete your programme before leaving OAU, most OAU staff have no idea even 100 Level students have the right to get their transcripts if they need it, they mostly believe only people who have graduated can get a transcript. So if you have already applied for your transcript online just assume someone saw your application and abandoned it because you didn't graduate and they don't know you still have the right to your transcripts on the levels you completed.

4. If you have applied for your transcripts online, it's been close to one year since you applied and the tracker is still stuck at "Payment Received", 99.99% are the chances your results are not on the database and no staff is trying to go help you get them from papers at your department. A transcript cannot be produced for you lest this is done!

Problems have been discussed, you now have a better understanding why your transcript is taking forever or may or may never be delivered, but what are the ways out? There are not many ways out, but the one I know is a promising one if you could find people that would be on ground to do some office-to-office to find out if your result has issues/Take a request to department for your result then take it to transcript office and this process would cost that person time, physical and mental stress (so mind what you say to them when things aren't going as you assume it should). My advice to you if you have one or more case among the numbers 1 to 4 problems discussed, just find somebody who is willing to climb mountains and swim oceans for you, lest you would wait for OAU staff forever or in vain. When you find someone to help you, here are the things you would need them to do for you in stages.
