The West African Examinations Council says that there is no official date set for the release of the 2024 West African Senior School Certificate Examination results.
Students and parents are advised to remain patient and await further updates from WAEC regarding the results.
The council assured that efforts are being made to ensure the results are released promptly and accurately.
WAEC Communication Officer, Moyosore Adeyegbe stated that the reported August 5 said to be release date is unofficial.
“It could be released before the said date and may even be after”, she told newsmen on Tuesday.
“The August 5 date was not verified from the appropriate quarters”, she added
Asked whether the said date was wrong and when the official release date would be, she continued, “Results are usually released on or before 45 days after the conduct of the last paper. If you calculate this in variation to August 5 its not up to 45 days”.
“That date they are putting there has not been verified or confirmed by WAEC.
“The report didnt come from us. The person speculated so its neither here nor there. It could be before then or after then but definitely might not be on that date.
Meanwhile, an examiner, Mr Abiodun Abubakar, in a chat with newsmen also on Tuesday clarified that the coordination and marking exercise was just rounded off.
He said, “The grading activities and return of scripts to WAEC offices ended on Sunday”
“So, all things equal the release of the result could be anytime from now probably in the first weeks of August. You know we may need to factor in the August 1 protest should it hold.
Earlier, Our correspondent reported in April that the WAEC Lagos Office, Head of Nigeria Office, Dr Amos Dangut, said 2024 WASSCE for school candidates would commence on Tuesday, April 30, 2024.
