The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has announced that candidates with withheld results from the 2024 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) can begin the re-checking process starting Monday, October 14, 2024. This initiative offers candidates an opportunity to clarify any issues related to their results and potentially resolve any discrepancies.

This announcement follows the conclusion of the 78th Nigeria Examinations Committee (NEC) meeting, which was held on October 9, 2024. The meeting served as a key platform for addressing important concerns about examination integrity and handling cases of malpractice.

Re-Checking Process for Withheld WASSCE Results

WAEC shared this critical update through its official X (formerly Twitter) handle, @waecnigeria. According to the announcement, candidates whose WASSCE results were withheld due to irregularities or alleged malpractice can now begin the re-checking process based on the guidelines provided by the Council. The 78th NEC meeting, a crucial part of WAEC’s efforts to maintain examination standards, reviewed these cases extensively to ensure fairness in addressing irregularities.

The meeting not only focused on handling malpractice but also took into account examination standards, the processing of results, and strategies to safeguard the credibility of future examinations in Nigeria.

In a social media post, WAEC stated: “ICYMI: The 78th Meeting of the Nigeria Examinations Committee (NEC) ended on October 9, 2024. The communiqué from the meeting will be made available soon. Candidates can re-check their results from Monday, October 14, 2024.”

What to Expect from the NEC Communiqué

The forthcoming communiqué is expected to provide essential details regarding the resolutions made during the NEC meeting. These will include decisions about how cases of malpractice are to be handled, future policy changes to enhance the examination process, and measures to improve the overall conduct of WAEC examinations.

Schools, students, and parents are urged to remain vigilant for this official document, which will shed light on the outcomes of the meeting and inform all parties of the next steps.

A Closer Look at Withheld Results

In August 2024, WAEC withheld the results of 215,267 candidates from the 2024 WASSCE, citing various forms of malpractice and examination irregularities. Despite this, the Council successfully released the results for other candidates on August 12, 2024. The NEC meeting addressed these issues directly, with the primary aim of preserving the integrity of WAEC's examination process.

WAEC's Commitment to Examination Integrity

The discussions held during the NEC meeting reflected WAEC's commitment to upholding high standards in examinations. Moving forward, the Council aims to refine its policies to further minimize the occurrence of malpractice, ensuring that the examination process remains transparent and credible. WAEC continues to work toward creating a fair and reliable environment for all students across West Africa.

Conclusion

Candidates, educational institutions, and the general public are encouraged to stay updated on new developments by following WAEC’s official communication channels.
