The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has threatened not to release results of candidates who sat for sat for the May/June examination across 19 states of the federation. Charles Eguridu, head of WAEC national office in Lagos, said governments of the respective states were owing the council a cumulative of N4 billion examination registration fees. But Eguridu did not list the affected states. “A total number of 19 states in the country owe the Council in respect of entry fees for state government sponsored candidates for the May/June 2015 WASSCE,” he said at a press conference in Lagos on Monday. “Some states also still owe the council registration fees for the May/June 2014 WASSCE. “We have written to the affected state governments without any response. The poor response of the debtor states is threatening the smooth operations of the council. “We, therefore, want to publicly plead with the affected states to 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 will be released along with others.”
