The West African Examination Council has warned prospective candidates of the West African Senior School Certificate Examinationnot to fall victim of a fake website purporting to offer online classes to them.
The exam body gave the warning on Wednesday, in a statement signed by the council’s acting head of public affairs, Moyosola Adesina, a copy of which was obtained by OSUN DEFENDER.
The Council, which denied affiliation to the said website further indicated that it has only one official e-learning portal for candidates seeking instructions and recommendations on examination questions.

The statement read in parts, “The attention of the West African Examination Council has been drawn to a website purporting to offer online classes for prospective WASSCE candidates.
“We want to state that the Nigeria National Office of the West African Examination Council has no affiliation or connection with the site.”
The statement further advised that “for candidates seeking instructions and recommendations on approaching and tackling examination questions, they should visit the council’s e-learning portal” for “accurate and reliable information.”
