The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has been hit with challenge as it discovered technical glitch while evaluating the results of the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) for School Candidates, 2025 released on Monday August 4, 2025 and advised candidates who have previously checked their results to recheck.

In a press release on Thursday August 7, 2025 by the Head, Public Affairs Department, WAEC Nigeria, Moyosola Adesina, the Council regretted the technical issues discovered during the internal review of the recently released results.

The release said, “As part of our efforts to curb examination malpractice, the Council embarked on an innovation (paper serialization) already deployed by a national examination body. It is also worth noting that this is in line with best practices in assessment. The paper serialization was carried out in Mathematics, English Language, Biology and Economics. However, an internal post result release procedure revealed some technical bugs in the results.

“The Council, being a responsive body that is sensitive to fairness and professionalism, has decided to urgently review and correct the technical glitches that led to the situation, as a result, access to the WASSCE (SC) 2025 results has been temporarily denied on the result
checker portal.

“We extend our deep and sincere apologies to all affected candidates and the general public.

“We appreciate their patience and understanding as we work diligently to resolve this matter with transparency and urgency within the next 24hours. On this note, candidates who have previously checked their results are advised to re-check after 24 hours from now.

“WAEC remains committed to upholding excellence, fairness and transparency in all our assessment processes.”

The Council therefore appreciate all stakeholders and the general public for always counting on its integrity and reposing confidence in them to render quality service to the Nigerian child.
