The West African Examination Council (WAEC) has announced ongoing efforts to release the pending results for candidates who participated in the 2024 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE).
In a statement, WAEC disclosed that the results of 33 school candidates and three private candidates have been withheld, while subject results from candidates in 149 schools are under review due to reported irregularities.
John Kapi, WAEC’s Head of Public Affairs, urged parents and guardians to remain patient as the results processing continues.
He explained that the delays are due to errors made by both supervisors and candidates, with some examination scripts incorrectly categorized, requiring additional review before final release.
Kapi assured the public that WAEC is working diligently, including overnight efforts, to resolve these issues and release the results as soon as possible.
He appealed for calm and understanding from parents and guardians while the council completes the necessary verifications.
