The registration fees for its exams had to be raised, according to the West African Examination Council (WAEC).

The testing authority claimed that Nigeria’s spiraling inflation was to blame for the slight rise in the registration cost for its exam from N13,950 to N18,000.

Assuring its stakeholders that the recently completed 2022 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) will be released within 45 days of the conduct of the last paper, as has been the council’s tradition, the council vowed to keep improving the quality of its service delivery.

When Prof. Ato Essuman, the chairman of WAEC’s council, led a group to see Education Minister Adamu Adamu yesterday in Abuja, they made this statement.

Essuman asked the Federal Government for help in order to buy the excellent printing device that will aid WAEC in providing its services.

The chairman said the machine would cost $3.9 million.
