Hours after the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) released the 2026 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) results, Educare CEO Alex Onyia took to X, alleging a serious glitch in the results, particularly for candidates who sat the Computer-Based Testing (CBT) option.
“WAEC, you can’t toy with our children’s destinies,” Onyia wrote, demanding that the results be withdrawn and corrected immediately or face a court challenge.
Dangut said the identified issues had been corrected, and disclosed that CBT adoption grew from fewer than 40 schools in 2025 to about 450 in 2026.
A familiar fight for Alex OnyiaThis is not the first time Onyia has taken on a Nigerian exam body over alleged system failures.
Whether WAEC’s 2026 CBT rollout has, in fact, produced errors on the scale he describes remains to be independently verified.
