The Nigerian office of the West African Examination Council (WAEC) has announced a 24-hour suspension of its result checker portal.
A statement issued by Moyosola Adesina, Head of Public Affairs, stated that the result checker portal was temporarily suspended due to a technical hitch.
The notice read, “WAEC hereby informs the general public that the result checker portal @waecdirect.org is temporarily shut down due to technical issues.
“However, the Council is working assiduously to ensure that candidates are able to access their results in the next 24 hours.
“We apologise for any inconvenience this might have caused you. Thank you,” the notice added.
It would be recalled that the results of the 2025 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) were released by the Council on Monday.
A total of 1,973,365 candidates from 23,554 recognised secondary schools across Nigeria registered for the major examination.
Out of these, 1,969,313 candidates actually sat for the examination.
Notably, the examination was not limited to Nigeria, as candidates from schools in the Benin Republic, Côte d’Ivoire, and Equatorial Guinea, where the Nigerian curriculum is used, also participated.
