The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) recently released the results for the 2023 General and Advanced Business Certificate Examinations (ABCE and GBCE).
In a press statement released on Tuesday, WAEC highlighted key statistics, achievements, and challenges encountered during the examination process.
This year, a total of 163 candidates sat for the Advanced Business Certificate Examinations (ABCE), while 173 candidates undertook the General Business Certificate Examinations (GBCE).
Unfortunately, the joy of success was marred by a few instances of examination irregularities. WAEC reported that five candidates were found with mobile phones in the examination hall.
As a consequence, their results have been withheld pending the outcome of thorough investigations. This emphasizes the importance of maintaining a fair and secure examination environment.
In its statement, WAEC cautioned all stakeholders, including students and parents, to remain vigilant against fraudsters who promise to upgrade results for a fee. The Council reassured candidates that WAEC results are secure and can be authenticated through official channels.
Despite the challenges faced, WAEC expressed its sincerest gratitude to various stakeholders who played crucial roles in ensuring the success of the examinations. The Council acknowledged the support of Security Agencies, Heads of School, Supervisors, Invigilators, Examiners, and all others who contributed to the smooth conduct of the examinations and the subsequent release of results.
