According to our findings, the said results will be released in batches. When the 2020 examination results were released, WEAC withheld the results of more than 60,000 candidates from 122 Senior High Schools for alleged examination infractions.

“When your results are still withheld after an abnormal period you may be called to the WAEC office in your region or at the WAEC-Ghana headquarters in Accra to make a statement concerning the examination malpractice”, the WAEC official told our correspondent Okyere Darko George.
