WAEC Under Fire: Lagos NUT Accuses Exam Body of Knowing About Question Leak Sites
“You can’t claim ignorance when your exam questions end up online,” — NUT Lagos Chairman
The Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT), Lagos Wing has accused the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) of being partly responsible for malpractice in the 2025 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE), alleging the body is aware of websites where exam questions are leaked.
WAEC, which recently released the 2025 WASSCE results, had blamed widespread failure on its strict anti-malpractice measures, claiming it detected cheating during script marking.
But Akintoye Hassan, Lagos NUT Chairman, told Channels Television’s The Morning Brief that WAEC’s stance was hypocritical.
> “There are sites where students access leaked questions and WAEC knows about them. This latest exam scandal — with students writing late at night — happened because WAEC admitted their questions had leaked. If you can’t stop that, you’re culpable,” he said.
WAEC’s Technical Glitch and Result Suspension
Earlier this week, WAEC suspended result checking for Mathematics, English Language, Biology, and Economics after detecting technical glitches. The move sparked outrage among students and parents.
The council later fixed the issue, saying the review was to maintain fairness and professionalism.
Hassan commended WAEC for admitting fault over the glitch, calling it “a welcome development in ensuring transparency.”
