According to Mr. Eguridu, the decision to reverse its initial delay in releasing the WAEC withheld Result 2016 of the states that are indebted to WAEC was due to pleas by various education stakeholders including the intervention of the secretariat of the Nigeria Governor’s Forum, adding that the council, however, did not wish to impede on the educational progress of any Nigerian child.

When asked to list the Nigerian states that are indebted to the examination body, Mr. Charles Eguridu refused, stating that it will be unfair as some states have already pain in some reasonable amount of money to offset their debts.

According to Mr. Eguridu, the examination council hopes that the affected Nigerian states will reciprocate this kind gesture, by fully offsetting their debts to the council so as to enable it meet its own obligations to its supervisors, examiners as well as service providers and other creditors.

 “Our decision to open this window of opportunity, that is, the resort to Advance Payment Guarantees for affected states, was as a result of our appreciation of the prevailing economic challenges facing the nation and in order not to jeopardize the educational progress of the candidates of the affected states,” said Mr. Eguridu while speaking on the WAEC withheld Result 2016.

Giving a breakdown of the results of candidates, West African Examinations Council (WAEC) through a statement signed and issued by the Deputy Director of Public Affairs of the council, Mrs. Agnes Teye-Cudjoe, made mention that the entire results of 598 candidates of this year’s West Africa Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) has been cancelled.

Mainly due to impersonation during the examination, 13 other candidates whose results were cancelled have been barred from partaking in any of the council’s examinations for two years
