This online news platform understands that this was revealed on Tuesday by the Council’s Head of National Office (HNO), Mr Patrick Areghan.

According to the WAEC chief, this has made it impossible to conduct WASSCE as scheduled.
“Let me use this opportunity to dispel rumours being peddled about by some people regarding the conduct of the WASSCE for school candidates, 2021,” he said.
The effect of the COVID-19 is still very much felt in the education sector and this has taken its toll on the academic calendar in the country.
“It is, therefore, not going to be possible to have the examination in May/June this year.”
Speaking further, he disclosed that an international timetable for the conduct of this examination will soon be released.
