According to The Head, National Office of the West African Examinations Council Charles Eguridu Nigeria has the largest number of examination anomalies out of its five member countries.
He warned applicants and schools that involve themselves in the despicable behaviour of organised examination malpractice of the grim penalties that include prosecution.
“We have regulations that governs the conduct of our examination.” he says.
He further added that WAEC has the power to hold back results and carry out investigation on whoever is involved in examination malpractice, adding that afterwards, the whole result of such perpetrator will be cancelled and the centre where the exam took place will become derecognised. Eguridu equally indicated that WAEC has presented a technology that confirms applicants that registered for the exam, indicating that at the point of registration, the biometric features of each candidate will be captured.
