The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has urged schools and parents raising concerns over the 2026 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) results to provide evidence to support their claims. Responding specifically to claims that some candidates were awarded grades in subjects they never registered for, Mr Kapi said WAEC would require documentary evidence before determining whether any error had occurred. Unless we see the evidence, it'll be difficult for us to just speak in a vacuum," he stated. He also clarified that the Council's ongoing investigations into examination malpractice are separate from the concerns being raised by the Association of Private Schools. Mr Kapi encouraged affected schools and candidates to use WAEC's established review procedures to enable the Council to investigate and, where necessary, rectify verified discrepancies.
