WAEC condemns exam leakage

The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has condemned the activities of fraudsters in the country.
The body said these criminal acts were capable of jeopardising the performance of gullible candidates in the ongoing exam for private candidates in the 2018 second series in the country.
Head, public affairs, Mr. Demianus Ojijeogu, in a statement on Wednesday, said that examinations written in other countries had been leaked in Nigeria.
“The council has observed with dismay that past questions were being posted through WhatsApp and criminal websites by fraudulent individuals, which they claim are that of yet to be written papers.
“For instance, the question paper for Principles of Cost Accounting, that was written in Sierra Leone and The Gambia today are being circulated by these criminally-minded elements for candidates in Nigeria as Financial Accounting, the paper slated for the next day “The success of our candidates is our major concern and the council wishes to advise all candidates not to fall prey to these fraudsters but rather concentrate on their studies,” he said.
