hehehe....The West Africa Examinations Council, WAEC has threatened to withhold
the results of students in 19 states that sat for the May/June 2015
WASSCE over nonpayment of candidates’ registration fees by their state
governments.Speaking at its national office
Yaba, some hours ago, the Head of National Office, HNO, Mr Charles
Eguridu said: “The affected states should 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 WASSCE will be
released alongside others.”

He said that a total number of 19 states in the country owe the Council in respect of entry fees for states government sponsored candidates for the May/June 2015 WASSCE noting that some States also still owe the Councils registration fees for the May/June 2014 WASSCE. According to him, the 19 states which are indebted to the tune of N4 billion were not making efforts to pay adding that efforts made by the Councils to get the money from them proved abortive, hence WAEC has resolved to make it public.
Eguridu who declined to mentioned names of the indebted states said, he is given them benefit of the debt, stressing that many of the governors have just assumed office. He however urged the indebted states to pay up within the next two weeks. His words: “Many of the states of the federation, as part of their education policy, pay the registration fees of candidates for the WASSCE, particularly in the public schools.
