The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) says it has
discovered “technical issues” in the 2025 Senior School Certificate Examination
(SSCE) results.
On Monday, Amos Josiah Dangut, head of the WAEC Nigeria
office, announced the release of the 2025 results.
In a statement on Thursday, Moyosola Adesina, acting head of
public affairs at WAEC, said the glitches were discovered during an internal
post-release review.
Adesina noted that the council has suspended access to the
result-checking portal after uncovering the technical errors.
“The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) sincerely
regrets to inform the general public of technical issues discovered during the
internal review of the recently released results of the West African Senior
School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) for School Candidates, (SC) 2025,” the
statement reads.
“As part of our efforts to curb examination malpractice, the
Council embarked on an innovation (paper serialization) already deployed by a
national examination body. It is also worth noting that this is in line with
best practices in assessment.
“The paper serialization was carried out in Mathematics,
English Language, Biology and Economics. However, an internal post result
release procedure revealed some technical bugs in the results.”
Adesina said the council is taking urgent steps to rectify
the glitches to ensure fairness and credibility.
“As a result, access to the WASSCE (SC) 2025 results has
been temporarily denied on the result checker portal,” she said.
“We extend our deep and sincere apologies to all affected
candidates and the general public. We appreciate their patience and
understanding as we work diligently to resolve this matter with transparency
and urgency within the next twenty-four (24) hours.
“On this note, candidates who have previously checked their
results are advised to re-check after 24 hours from now.”
