WAEC Asks Candidates To Visit Any State Office For Their Certificates

The West African Examinations Council has asked  candidates to visit any of its state offices in Nigeria and  collect Attestation of Results and Certificates 

Before the new development, candidates could only collect such Attestation of Results or Certificates  from the office of the Council in the state where they had their examination.

But the Acting Head, Public Affairs WAEC Nigeria, Demianus Ojijeogu, in a statement, explains  that in the new modalities introduced by the Council, candidates can obtain Attestation of Results from any of its offices in the country 

According to him, “The new modalities are a clear departure from what obtained in the past, where it was mandatory for private candidates to collect their certificates or Attestation of Results from the WAEC office in the state where they sat the examination. With this new initiative, candidates can apply and collect their Certificates or Attestation of Results (both School and Private Candidates) from any WAEC office of their choice in Nigeria.

The statement further reads in parts:

“Modalities for Collection of Attestation of Results and Certificates (Private Candidates) are as follows:

“For Attestation of Results, candidates are required to make their requests from any office of the Council and pay a non-refundable fee for the service.

“For collection of certificates, candidates are to make their requests from any office of the Council and pay the prescribed fee;

“Candidates must state clearly the preferred office of collection of the printed Attestation of Result or Certificate and would be required to pay for courier service for delivery to the chosen location.

“Candidates contact details (Mobile Phone Number and E-mail Address) must be provided at the point of request.”
