The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) says it cannot give assurance of the release of the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) results on or before December 29, 2024, as announced by the Minister of Education, Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum.

This is because the amount it awaits to enable it to fix the broken down scanners, conclude scanning of the objective test answer cards, and then process the results is yet to be received.

The council has, therefore, dismissed media publications giving an assurance that the results would be released by December 29.

WAEC has indicated to Graphic Online that the assurance by the Minister that there had been an additional release of GHc25 million to the Council for its operational activities and that it had assured that results would be released before or by December 29, 2024, was not accurate.
