The Ministry of Education has strongly rebuffed former President John Dramani Mahama s recent claims of lax supervision and collusion in the West Africa Senior Schools Certificate Examination (WASSCE).
Minister for Information, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, has expressed deep disappointment with former President John Dramani Mahama’s recent comments belittling the success of the Free SHS programme, describing it as “woefully disheartening.”
Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has congratulated the 2023 West Africa Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) students for performing well in this year s examination.
The Registrar also added that performance according to states shows that Lagos and Kano came first, followed by Oyo while Kebbi came bottom. Yet again, Lagos and Kano are among leading states with highest number of candidates involved in malpractice. While Maths, English and Civil Education take the lead in 2023 NECO exam malpractice, number of candidates with five credits and above, including English and Mathematics, is 737, 308 out of 1,196,985 which represents 61.60%.
