29 born-again Christians return WAEC certificates for cheating

Twenty-nine born again Christians have returned their certificates to
the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) for engaging in
examination malpractice when they sat for the exams.

The examination body in a statement released after its 62nd National
Examination Committee meeting recently said that among the 29
certificates that were returned by the born again Christians, includes
one that was issued 33 years ago (1984) and another one that was
issued 32 years ago (1985).

A breakdown showed that four certificates each were returned by born
again Christians who on their own confessed that they cheated while
sitting for their exams between 2011 and 2013.
Others include three that sat for the examinations in 2000, 2004,
2008, two each in 1992 and 2003 while one certificate each was
returned by born again Christians who sat for the examination in 1984,
1985, 2001, 2002, 2005, 2006 and 2012.
The council also announced the cancellation of 151 certificates
already issued to candidates that sat for both school and private
examinations who were later found to have engaged in examination
malpractices.
