First, it was the 1 million massive May/June candidate failure in WAEC in Nigeria. Thursday, December 18 news publication now reports the recently concluded November/December 2014 West African Senior School Certificate Examination, where 70% of candidates who sat for the exam failed in Nigeria. Not a good trend.
Are these WAEC trends a Nigeria failure/success in the government or educational system? Nigerians have your say. What can we do to improve these results. What do you think is the problem with the WAEC exam? Please use the comment box and Osaseye will be reviewing all entries.
Of the 246,853 candidates who sat for the November/December 2014 West African Senior School Certificate Examination, only 72,522 candidates, representing 29.37 per cent, obtained credits in five subjects, including Mathematics and English Language.
This puts the percentage of failed candidates at 70.63 per cent.
However, the Head of the Nigeria National Office, the West African Examinations Council, Mr. Charles Eguridu, said there was an improvement when compared with last year’s 26.97 per cent (amounting to 80,135 candidates) who obtained five credits in five subjects, including Mathematics and English Language.
