Apex Nigerian Muslim students body, the Muslim
Students Society of Nigeria (MSSN), has criticized
the West African Examinations Council (WAEC)
over the times fixed for some subjects in the 2015
November December General Certificate of
Education (GCE) time tables.
Speaking with newsmen in Abeokuta last week, MSSN
accused the examination body of fixing examinations
at times when most Muslims should be praying.
According to the zonal coordinator of the group in
the southern states, Alhaji Mushafau Alaran, the act
takes Muslims for granted and disrespects Islam.
“It should be noted that Jumat prayer is an obligation
that all Muslims must observe," Alaran said.
The affected subjects include Forestry 2 (Essay)
scheduled for 1pm to 3pm on the 11th of October,
Government 2 Essay scheduled for 1pm to 3pm on
the 18th of October as well as Mathematics, Applied
Electricity 2 and Applied Electricity 1.
Alaran called for an adjustment of the timetable and
an apology from the body.

Who says the WAEC exam is compulsory. Dy can as well go for prayers nd abandon their exams. Religion is really the opium of the people

If they like, let them stay home.

To WAEC : Any student or group of students who fail to show up for the exam should be given F9. Thanks

To Muslim Students : must you pray?...All the prayers you've done all your life, Is your country any better
