WAEC to punish workers for result errors

WEST African Examinations Council (WAEC) officials responsible for alterations of candidates results are to be sanctioned.
A statement by WAEC spokesman Yusuf Ari, on behalf of Head of National Office Dr Iyi Uwadiae yesterday,  said some workers erroneously altered results of some candidates in the process of upgrading results that were previously withheld.
The statement assured that the results released earlier this month is authentic.
The statement reads: “The West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) May/June 2011 results were released on  August 10 with some pending/outstanding results.
“Subsequently, there was a need to update some outstanding results.  However, due to human  error that was traced to some workers, the result update altered the already released results.
“The Council wishes to allay the fears of  stakeholders and assure them that WAEC does not “upgrade” results as has been reported.  The results remain as they were released on August 10.
“The Council hereby informs the public that the May/June 2011 WASSCE results can be accessed on the website or from the hard copies of results sent to schools.
“The Council also wishes to state that the officers connected with the error would be appropriately sanctioned.”

  2. WAEC is depriving me so many things, I want to ask a question ‘ is it because is govt body that’s y they are not taking issues related to them serious?’ i made my papers since 2004, i collect my result 2011, i discovered an error in my result i took it back to them for amendment since 2011, i was ask to pay 10,000 naira which i did, could u believe dat since 2011 till date nothing is being done, because of dat i was un able to process for my HND or Bsc , unable to get a job until last November dat i decided to go there and apply to retrieve my result for documentation, because of d nature of my job, i ask them if i can call to knw when the result is ready, they said i should not call that i should check back after 3 months to knw if is being done . My question is ” CAN PRIVATE SECTOR DO A THING LIKE THIS”? The mistake is made and i don’t want to go further to knw if d mistake is from me or waec, and i paid so dat i can get my result on time, 2 years is gone nothing is being done. THIS IS UNFAIR
