Is this a new rule? I was there three weeks back....and I didn't experience such. Please clarify. Only the WAEC certificate was needed if you want attest your Bsc. And, nobody asked further questions about any testimonals. Got First Leaving, WAEC, Bsc and Eligibility letter.

Go with your secondary school testimonial, without it you wont be able to collect eligibility letter in which you are going to need at MOFA
Unklekelvin:
ok thanks I have the original to the two certs. No need to go there with secondary school testimonial right?

I'm asking this because someone said they must see my secondary school testimonial before they attest my WAEC and I'm very far from my secondary school now.
