The council assured that efforts are being made to ensure the results are released promptly and accurately.

WAEC Communication Officer, Moyosola Adesina, stated that the reported August 5 release date is “unofficial.”

“It could be released before the said date and may even be after,” she told PUNCH Online in a telephone chat on Tuesday.

“The August 5 date was not verified from the appropriate quarters,” she added

Asked whether the said date was wrong and when the official release date would be, she continued, “Results are usually released on or before 45 days after the conduct of the last paper.

“If you calculate this in variation to August 5 – it’s not up to 45 days.

“That date they are putting there has not been verified or confirmed by WAEC.

“The report didn’t come from us. The person speculated so it’s neither here nor there. It could be before then or after then but definitely might not be on that date.”

Meanwhile, an examiner, Mr Jamiu Abubakar, in a chat with PUNCH Online also on Tuesday clarified that the coordination and marking exercise was just rounded off.

He said, “The grading activities and return of scripts to WAEC offices ended on Sunday.

“So, all things equal the release of the result could be anytime from now – probably in the first weeks of August. You know we may need to factor in the August 1 protest should it hold.”

Earlier, PUNCH Online reported in April that the WAEC Lagos Office, Head of Nigeria Office, Dr Amos Dangut, said 2024 WASSCE for school candidates would commence on Tuesday, April 30, 2024.
