WAEC Website down, domains expired, site not accessible for 72 hours

Nearly all WAEC Website domains have expired and are not accessible to the general public. Ghana Education News detected this anomaly three days ago.

Apart from the home page at https://ghana.waecdirect.org/ all other pages and sub-domains of the portal are off and show that the domain expired on 2022-06-21 08:32:09.

All its domains and subdomains are down. WAEC Ghana hosting services are provided by Web4Africa.  A visit to any of the WAEC Ghana sites shows the message This domain name expired on 2022-06-21 at 08:32:09 Click here to renew it.

The implication of this is that the general public cannot access information and valuable data on the site.

A visit to https://www.waecgh.org/EXAMSTATISTICS/BECE.aspx which is the internal link from the home page menu to the BECE page of the website returns the image below just like other pages.

While 2022 BECE and WASSCE candidates are preparing for their examination, one would expect that the site will be functioning so that use resources such as the Chief Examiners Reports, and other service portals will be up and live for access.

The WAEC Website is down as its domains have expired making the website inaccessible. This is not one that stakeholders are excited about.

It is expected that the IT staff and all in charge of maintaining the site will take steps to go live soon as the nation’s examination body.

The current state of the website does not permit anyone to access any information or resource on the site.

Until the council fulfills its hosting obligations to the hosting company, teachers, schools, students and all stakeholders will not be able to access the website.
