The West African Examinations Council (WAEC), Nigeria, has said the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) for School Candidate, 2025 was not cancelled as being peddled on social media.

According to a press statement dated Saturday, July 19th, 2025, being circulated on social media platforms, the Federal Ministry of Education in collaboration with WAEC had canceled the said examination due to widespread of examination malpractice, coordinated leakage of questions papers, and unauthorized digital dissemination of exam materials.

But the WAEC Management in a press statement on Sunday July 20, 2025 signed by the Ag. Head, Public Affairs Department,
WAEC, Nigeria, Mrs. Moyosola Adesina, said unequivocally that the spurious Press Statement being circulated did not emanate from the Council, emphasising that the examination has not been cancelled.

Though the source of that information cannot be ascertained, the Council is certain that the false claim is being peddled by mischief-makers who are bent on bringing the Council to disrepute to cause confusion and panic among candidates who sat the examination.

“As a matter of fact, the marking scripts of the said examination has just been concluded and results will be released on or before Monday, August 4, 2025.

“The Council would like to use this opportunity to inform the general public
and all stakeholders that all information from the Council are disseminated via our official and verified social media handles, as well as accredited media platforms across the country. In the same vein, all press releases are issued and signed by the Public Affairs Department of the Council on behalf of the Head of National Office.

“We therefore, urge our stakeholders and the general public to disregard the
said publication”, WAEC said.
