The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has released all withheld results from the 2024 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).
WAEC had withheld over 10,000 results over suspected malpractices but pledged to release them by February 28.
The decision follows a legal battle and threats of nationwide protests from the National Union of Ghana Students (NUGS).
Speaking to Citi News, head of public affairs at WAEC, John Kapi, said there are currently no outstanding results, including those previously tied to a legal dispute with the Council.
He said, “As we promised, we kept to our promises. So by the close of February 28, we had uploaded all the results of the candidates whose results had been withheld.
“The court had ordered that we should release the results of those candidates. And so we’ve gone ahead with all the results. So we don’t have any outstanding results as far as, you know, those exams are concerned.
“Well, 28 was a Friday, and so we assume that the people are still waiting till the beginning of the week, you know, to begin to call the office and to register some complaints. But, again, I think that whatever we have put out there is a true reflection of the performance of the candidates in the examination.”
