Just in: WAEC seizes results of candidates from 8 states

Students hailing from eight states who have outstanding debts to the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) for services rendered will not receive their 2023 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) results. 

This disclosure was conveyed by WAEC officials during a press briefing held on Monday at the Press Briefing Hall of the WAEC National Office in Yaba. 

The organization is worried about unpaid fees, which are causing problems for the examination body’s operations.

Responding to a question on the states owing WAEC, the National Officer of WAEC, Mr. Patrick Areghan, noted that “About eight states are owing WAEC. We won’t mention them all, as some are going to pay.

“However, Zamfara and Niger are the highest debtors. Again Zamfara did not present any candidate for this year’s WASSCE,” Areghan noted.
