WAEC is currently facing intense backlash after releasing the results of the 2025 May/June West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE). The results have caused conversations, with students, parents, teachers, and education experts expressing concern over the poor performance.

Only 38% of candidates passed with five credits, including English Language and Mathematics, subjects necessary for gaining admission into higher institutions. This marks a steep drop from the 72.12% success rate recorded in 2024, making it one of the lowest performances in recent years.

On X, education advocate Dr. Richard Ayo-Dairo (@RArakunrin) suggested the midnight timing of the English exam may have contributed to the poor performance. “No one is talking about the WAEC 2025 Midnight English Language examination, which clearly played a role in the mass failure,” he wrote. “Someone needs to be held accountable. This is about the future of our children.”

Another user, Femi Organ (@FemiOrgan), blamed an issue. “How many students today can even speak proper English, let alone write it? And those who speak well can’t explain or use it meaningfully. Shortcuts and slang have taken over,” he said. “WAEC is just the mirror. The real problem is around us.”

Published

It has been shared that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is calling on the federal government to suspend the tax law set to take effect on January 1, 2026.

This was revealed in a statement released by Ini Ememobong, National Publicity Secretary of the PDP. He stated that this new law shows how Nigerians and the masses will be affected, arguing that the government is prioritizing finance over security and other pressing matters.

“Rather than address these issues comprehensively, the Presidency has consciously minimized them and instead insisted that the commencement date must stand, despite the discrepancies,” the party said, adding that this “clearly shows where the priority of the government lies between Nigerians and money.”
