Sh*ck As WAEC Withdraws 2025 WASSCE Results Nationwide – Students Ordered To Recheck

The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has announced a thorough review of the recently released 2025 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) results.

In a statement issued on Thursday and signed by Moyosola Adesina, the Acting Head of Public Affairs, WAEC revealed that the decision followed the discovery of technical glitches and system bugs affecting the released results.

According to WAEC, the review is aimed at correcting these errors, and as a result, access to the result-checking portal has been temporarily suspended.

The examination body further advised all candidates who have already checked their results to revisit the portal after 24 hours, starting from Thursday, August 7, 2025, to verify any updates.

WAEC explained that a paper serialization process was conducted on core subjects including Mathematics, English Language, Biology, and Economics, during which the system bugs were detected.

This move comes just hours after WAEC announced the temporary shutdown of its result-checking portal on Wednesday due to the technical issues.

Speaking on the development, Adesina apologized for any inconvenience caused and assured candidates that the technical problems would be resolved within 24 hours.

It will be recalled that WAEC had released the 2025 May/June WASSCE results on Monday, August 4, with over 1.9 million candidates from 23,000 schools across Nigeria participating in the exam.
