The West African Examination Council (WAEC) has announced that it is making progress in releasing the pending results for candidates who participated in the 2024 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE).

In their statement, WAEC confirmed that the results of 33 school candidates and three private candidates are currently withheld.

Additionally, subject results for candidates from 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, “The delays are due to some errors made by our supervisors and candidates not following instructions. For instance, a music script might be found with the music examiner, but the design portion can’t be evaluated by the same examiner.”

Kapi reassured parents that their team has been working tirelessly through the night to resolve these issues and hopes to release the results soon.
