The West Africa Examinations Council (WAEC) has debunked report of a leaked mathematics examination question paper.
WITHIN NIGERIA had earlier reported that WAEC starts its Senior School Certificate Examination, today, Aug. 17 and it will go on till Sept. 7.
However, a leaked mathematics question paper circulated on social media, Sunday night.
Reacting, WAEC told a concerned Nigerian who alerted them on Twitter that the leaked paper was fake.
The Nigerian @iotama22, wrote, “WAEC maths paper scheduled for today has leaked since weekend according to sources.
“What kind of a country is this for God’s sake? I hope the people responsible will be investigated and punished as appropriate.”
Responding, WAEC said, “This is fake. Scammers do this every year. Only gullible candidates fall prey.”
In other news, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo of Ghana said late Sunday that tertiary schools will reopen on Aug. 24 for students who have yet to complete the academic year.
