The Lagos State wing of the Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT), has accused the West African Examination Council (WAEC) of complicity in leaking its exam questions to students.
The NUT Lagos Wing Chairman, Akintoye Hassan, made the allegation on Friday while speaking during The Morning Brief on Channels Television.
According to the NUT official, WAEC is aware of websites that leak its questions to students and has not taken appropriate measures to curb the practice.
He added that WAEC is culpable in the entire process.
“Now, relating that back to the earlier assertion I’d made—that there are sites that the so-called questions, some of these younger ones access them, WAEC is aware of this.
“So if you could not curb malpractices at that end, whereby your question got leaked, because the issue of this latest exam whereby students wrote the exam late in the night was as a result of the fact that WAEC admitted that their question had leaked.
“So, do you not see the correlation? So if students can ask questions via some, you know, fraudulent sites, WAEC is culpable,” the Lagos NUT chief stated.
His submission comes hours after WAEC announced that it is embarking on a comprehensive review of the recently released results of the 2025 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).
WAEC, in a statement signed and released on Thursday by its Acting Head of Public Affairs, Moyosola Adesina, stated that the review became necessary following the discovery of some glitches and bugs.
The examination body stated that it is therefore embarking on an urgent review to correct the technical glitches that led to this situation.
WAEC disclosed further that as a result of the ongoing review, result checking and viewing have been temporarily denied on its result checking portal.
Naija News reports that WAEC also directed candidates who have previously checked their results to recheck them.
