vowed not to release the results of students who
sat for the May/June West African Senior School
Certificate Examination (WASSCE) in 19 states,
over outstanding debts.
According to Punch, “No fewer than 19 states of
the federation owe the council about N4 billion
examination registration fees.”
WAEC Head of National Office, Lagos, Charles
Eguridu , announced the news during a press
briefing on Monday. He stated:
“A Total Number Of 19 States In The Country
Owe The Council In Respect Of Entry Fees
For State Government Sponsored Candidates
For The May/June 2015 WASSCE. Some States
Also Still Owe The Council Registration Fees
For The May/June 2014 WASSCE.
We Have Written To The Affected State
Governments Without Any Response. The Poor
Response Of The Debtor States Is Threatening
The Smooth Operations Of The Council.
We, Therefore, Want To Publicly Plead With
The Affected States To Off-set The
Registration Fees Of Their Candidates As Soon
As Possible, As We Cannot Guarantee That
The Results Of Their Candidates For The May/
June 2015 Will Be Released Along With
Others.”
