WAEC WARNS SCHOOLS AND SUPERVISORS AGAINST EXTORTION OF CANDIDATES 


The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has received alarming reports of supervisors and some schools extorting candidates under various pretexts, including transportation of scripts, welfare packages, and unauthorized “cooperation” fees. WAEC has also noted cases where schools demand payment for KAPEK calculators already provided by the Council at no cost to candidates. 

WAEC condemns these practices as illegal, unethical, and a direct threat to the integrity of the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE). 

The Council hereby directs all school proprietors, principals, supervisors, and invigilators to comply with the following: 

 No collection of money from candidates or parents for any examination official. 

 Immediate reporting of any extortion attempt to the Zonal Coordinator/Branch Controller or via: publicaffairs@waec.org.ng and hnowaeclagos@yahoo.co.uk. 

 No harassment or intimidation of candidates for refusing to pay unauthorized fees. 

Schools or officials found violating these directives will face strict sanctions, including  derecognition, blacklisting, prosecution and referral to relevant authorities for disciplinary action. 


WAEC remains committed to protecting the integrity of its examinations and safeguarding the future of the Nigerian child.
