The council, in a statement by Demainus Ojijeogu, head of
public affairs, WAEC Nigeria, also enjoined the general public to disregard
“several versions of the examination timetable that have been in circulation”.
According to the statement, the examination would begin
effective from August 17, and through September 12, 2020.
“The council hereby urges the candidates to abide by the
rules and regulations guiding the conduct of the examination by shunning all
acts of malpractice and obeying all COVID-19 protocols that have been put in
place at the examination centres,” it added.
This year’s WASSCE, earlier scheduled for April, was
postponed indefinitely because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
But as the lockdown, which was imposed on countries, was
eased gradually, the exam body fixed August 4, to September 5 for the
examination.
The federal government, however, stated that students of
unity schools would not participate in the examination owing to COVID-19
concerns.
