In other news, the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has directed some final-year Senior High School students who reported late to the examination hall and were prevented from writing a WASSCE for School paper to register Nov/Dec and write that missed paper.

“We have the school examination and the private examination so for those who miss the opportunity of writing that particular paper on the day they will have to probably register and write the WASSCE for Private Candidates,” a spokesman for WAEC said.
