The West African Examination Council states that the results of the 2024 West African Senior School Certificate Examination official release date have not been set.
Parents and students are encouraged to wait for more information from WAEC regarding the results.
The council promised that every effort is being made to guarantee the timely and accurate dissemination of the results.
According to Moyosore Adeyegbe, the WAEC Communication Officer, the August 5 release date is “unofficial.”
“It could be released before the said date and may even be after,” she made it known on Tuesday.
“The August 5 date was not verified from the appropriate quarters,” she added.
Asked whether the said date was wrong and when the official release date would be, she continued, “Results are usually released on or before 45 days after the conduct of the last paper.
“If you calculate this in variation to August 5, it’s not up to 45 days.
“That date they are putting there has not been verified or confirmed by WAEC.
“The report didn’t come from us. The person speculated so it’s neither here nor there. It could be before then or after then but definitely might not be on that date.”
Meanwhile, an examiner, Mr Abiodun Abubakar, also on Tuesday clarified that the coordination and marking exercise was just rounded off.
He said, “The grading activities and return of scripts to WAEC offices ended on Sunday.
“So, all things equal the release of the result could be anytime from now, probably in the first weeks of August. You know we may need to factor in the August 1 protest should it hold.”
