The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) on Monday assured its over 120,000 examiners of their safety in all the 80 marking centres spread across the country. Mr Damianus Ojijeogu, the Head, Public Affairs of WAEC, gave the assurance in an interview with tnewsmen in Lagos.
Ojijeogu spoke as the council’s examiners were set for the marking of the 2016 May/June West African Senior School Certificate Examinations (WASSCE) scripts. “ We are assuring all examiners that will be participating in the coordination and marking of the examination scripts of their safety in all the centres across the country.
“We have personnel that will assist them in getting their jobs done without hitch. “The marking is expected to last for three weeks after which the results will be announced in August. “I want to commend the examiners for the vital roles they played during our examinations.
“They actually do not do it because of what they will get as gratification, but for the passion they have for their jobs as teachers and educationists,’’ he said.
