Nigeria’s non-participation in 2020 WASSCE: Irreparable damage

Nigeria’s non-participation in 2020 WASSCE: Irreparable damage

Speaking with State House Correspondents after last Wednesday’s Virtual meeting of the Federal Executive Council meeting, Mallam Adamu said apart from the fact that the yearly WASSCE may not hold this year, schools under the supervision of the Federal Ministry of Education will not be opened on August 4 or any time soon.

Mallam Adamu emphasised that the West African Examination Council, WAEC, created by the former Colonial Administrators to serve Ghana, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Liberia and Gambia, which has been administering the annual Regional Examination in the last 68 years, cannot unilaterally determine when Nigerian schools will resume.
