For over centuries, Sierra Leone has employed an outskirt examination body all with the intentions to improve the status of education in the country. Little did we know that this action will totally diminish and decline not only the educational system but also the country which we solely beloved.
Imagine, the joy of a child being addressed into prep school, primary school, secondary and only to get stuck by an examination called WASSCE under the watchful eyes of the West Africa Examination Council (WAEC). WAEC being the sole head of such examination that have been controlling the destinies and fate of young and prospective Sierra Leoneans, the question remain is how is it possible for a student after being taught and tested on various occasions in class at different levels for this so called exams to just sit and fail miserably? With such disappointments students face up till this moment, they readily accepts their fates and determined to make a reseat no matter how many times just to ensure their dreams of entering into university being achieved and not even considering the amount of money which will have gone to drain and pockets of this outskirt, rogue, cheating examination body.
WAEC is not an examination body, it is just a scheme to exploit parents and render the youthful population of the country to the trenches and ghettos. This is what have always been the fate and claims of so many Sierra Leoneans who have fallen victims to their so called examination scheme, like the popular saying goes “99 days for the thieves, one day for the owner”. This is what has definitely befallen upon this so call examination institution.
The 2022-20223 WASSCE has definitely exposed the shenanigans of this deceitful institution, like the saying goes no one has to get disappointed or judge their abilities based on the circumstances of not gaining requirements to university because of a decision from any lecturer, teacher or exams like the so called stage managed WASSCE, because they don’t just worth it.
Our prayers have finally been answered God has finally exposed them; WAEC has failed miserably their statistics for the 2022/2023 WASCEE is completely shameful. A big question is how 90 percent of Art students scored an Average A1 grade in Mathematics while failing woefully in English and Literature. Hilarious! How can this be possible, a lot of testaments from even students that do not even know the basics of Mathematics, talk less of them passing the exams at the highest level of exams? This is a call for concern, to all sound and meaningful Academics in Sierra Leone, it has been to long that we have been observing the deceitful practices of WAEC which has render the younger generation to the very brink.
There is no better time, than now to stand up against them. Examination malpractice should not only be condemned by students but also by the highest level of academic. This is just a clear path of examination malpractice that needs to be held accountable for their actions, over one thousand results have being withheld with no proper explanations, in reality whenever WAEC renders a students as a failure in these exams, this totally leads to increased amount of unemployment, crime, idle, disgruntled and underdevelopment in the country.
This is a wake-up call to the government, an educational injustice that needs to addressed as soon as possible. The actions of this institution is one of the main reason for the failing educational system in the country, pondering the thought, why do schools and not individuals always emerge successful at WAEC’s exams, is it that selected schools are the only places students have to be admitted before they can pass these exams and gain entrance into university. At the brick of this educational quest by this present government. Several recommendations have emerged from students and things need to address as soon as possible, WAEC should be blamed for leaked questions and continuous examination malpractices.
The tactics behind this year’s result is to prevent students from entering university because the last year results reflected huge passes. Young generation is being damaged right in our faces, we should see this as no surprise because it is a practice and effect by this so called WAEC institution.
Indeed we need not to forget but to act on all those damaging our educational sector all in the name of pretty trumped up statistics.
Until WAEC is been taken out from the educational confines of this country, let no one speak of quality education because their quality has been a disaster and we now “tip toeing” around the scam deceit mode been put up on students by the scammed WAEC.
However, if students are being chastised and being left dreaded and disappointed at the very end, it will be very fair that WAEC should be chastised and questioned for their lapses and even banned from conducting stage managed exams. Have you ever considered why students even at their host nation Nigeria prefer sitting to NECO and JAMB rather than WASSCE? Have a rethink MBSSE Conrad Sacky, WAEC is a scam and disgraceful examination bodies that has brought nothing but utter-shame and disgrace to our great nation.
This is really something to think off
President bio really needs to take action against this so called wassce body.
Indeed WAEC must be out of the Educational system in this our beloved Sierra Leone as it’s slowing the growth and success of families and the nation as a whole.
All the examination malpractices are being orchestrated and masterminded by this crooked body called waec. Their absence in the education system is far better than their presence and therefore should be eliminated and replaced by a better option.
Right, the government didn’t know that: “quality education is better than free education”, but they will reflect it a day as how they have destroyed our nation.
Right, the Government didn’t know that: “quality education is better than free education”, but they will reflect it a day as how they have destroyed our nation. Thanks!
we want them to release our withheld result as soon as possible
Wace is a disgraceful body in our country, the have destroyed so many youth in our beloved county, ACC body need to investigating about WACE institution,my girl friend got A1 in mathematics and failed English,she was an art student, she doesn’t know anything about maths, she was surprised about it.
Please am pleading to the Ministry and the government of sierra Leone to put emphasis and premium on the so called WAEC for proper investigation and also let the ministry and government make up another bodies like the NECO and JAMB examination council to administered all national exams rather than the so called WAEC
Right, the Government didn’t know that: “quality education is better than free education “, but they will reflect it a day as how they have destroyed our nation. Thanks!
This particular body is not good for the mindful youth in our beloved nation Sierra Leone. They have damaged the feature of youth in this country a lot, therefore, I will be happy if this so call WAEC should be eradicated immediately.
Right!
Smart move
Am also a victim of this shit, I have three times sat to this so call wassce without getting English but my question is why am I failing English when it’s the same language am using to write the other subjects am getting A, B and C’s in.
This story nor clear at all
Truly, our worthless and useless education regulators are responsible for the downfall of Sierra Leone pupils in the name of maintaining thier positions of offices. I’m calling on the government of Sierra Leone to repeal and replace the laws of education regulators and that of WAEC operational legality of operation in Sierra Leone now. We are sick and tired to WAEC as sole proprietor of examination body in Sierra Leone. We are sick and tired to WAEC as a complete monopoly to determine the success of our endeavors to success or children in Sierra Leone now. Change thier laws now and allowed Competent bodies of Examination to compete with WAEC and Ministry welfare.
Please the king 👑👑 realized our whitehead results
WAEC is a total scam.
Our education regulators are responsible for the massive disadvantage caused by WAEC on our endeavors to success in Sierra Leone. WAEC laws of operation should be changed now to meet the 21st Century Educational Standard. WAEC should not be obstacle between us in Sierra Leone as much is given to them. WAEC is a complete monopoly and that is why they abused and misuse that opportunity to our very faces. WAEC nor good for Salone education and sound competitor should be encouraged to conduct,man exams in Sierra Leone not as complete monopoly as WAEC now. Had it not being that, our education regulators are worthless and useless to encourage such a Scam body like WAEC to operate in Sierra Leone alone and decides the fate of our endeavors to success,not now we would have taken an action on WAEC but since then,we have realize that,the presence of WAEC in Sierra Leone is more dangerous than for them to be eliminated from the face of Sierra Leone. Let us know, WAEC is foreign relations company and working on the instructions of certain people that are our enemies or taking advantage of illiteracy or ignorance of thier deliberate wickness. Mr Minister, draft a new WAEC LAWS NOW BEFORE WE CONFRONT WAEC TO ASHES. We will burn down WAEC if actions is not taken into consideration.
Exam malpractice did not start in this country,it start from those that write this books (the white people)if a student deserve to pass give him or her a passing grade, because you didn’t caught him or her spying,in this country (sierra Leone)when a student write too much sense in his or her paper they said he or she doesn’t deserve it,and the worst of it,if you do not write too much sense you fall in their own part(fail)so how can a student write in waec exam when all of us read the same books the same definition we write the same waec exam but at the end they said compairesim,but the higher ranking the Minister’s, honorables, member’s of paliment their children passes this waec with no question,why we the poor are still attempting waec five times without having it?.
It’s total disgraceful act to our country Sierra Leone so government should intervene.
Like seriously look at this year results, 34 thousand results were withheld without no proper evidence of being spying in examination hall, but for them just to discourage our feature leaders of tomorrow, so papa Government 🙏 please let them release our children’s results pls
It’s uncleared to me still why arts students scored A1s at mathematics than English
This is a blatant fact.What really beats my imagination is the creation of Whatsapp groups during public examinations through which pupils are supplied question papers and written answers, similar happens even in NCTVA . Our education system is heading for a doom
Am sick and tired of all the mess of this your so called waec or whatever
This has caused a lot of young potentials to drop out of school and rather think of engaging in bad practices.
Could you imagine haven passed all the lower education stages just for a so called WASSCE after the exam you cannot proud of a single subject then what’s the difference between you and the local Farmer in the village?
This is sad
They are evil . There are some students with good results can’t even spell or read anything for God sake .. but they are getting good results why …… While others are there perishing but I vehemently blame the conrad he is not working harder . The government needs to wake up to release the withheld results .
The Minister is so dull
please try to realise the 2022-2023 result we are waiting let this not be a habit or a way of money finding for WAEC
With held result is only a way to find money may why they want these children to re seat so that they will get more money from then
Good to hear this, we are so proud of this media
I strongly agree to the fact that WAEC is a total scam for our loving Sierra Leone and this scam has damaged lots of our youths today. Imagine after battling WASSCE with WAEC for three years, entered university in 2014, graduated in 2018, a brilliant colleague of mine back then in senior secondary school for over ten years is still struggling to get requirement. This is complete witchcraft.
If we get another exam bodie(s) in our country trust me WAEC will die out in Sierra Leone because no student will ever sit under them.
MBSSE, please we need other exam bodie(s) we are tired of this monopoly shit, WAEC is a disgrace to Sierra Leone.
Truly WAEC has disgraced the educational integrity of this nation. “Una den sweh tin ya so”.
Your article is thoughtful.
I wish the minister could here your voice.
Thanks 👍
This is total rubbish as for some people in the Art stream even got A1 in mathematics while fail English hopefully this is really hilarious they don’t want us to enter university because they have put English and top notch this is very bad some of us got 7credits including our main compulsory subject which is Chemistry, physics, biology, economics, science core,mathematics, agriculture, then no English for that reason we’re now drop out because when you go to that same school to resit you have to pay another money for you to be enroll this is really bad
If 17% we’re able to got English then
“My question is how some of us able to write other subject”
Like seriously! this thing is getting worse, for over how many years now, no improvement, no change. Ahhhhhhhhhhh no this is too much for this country.
WACE SHOULD BE BANNED… DREAM’S KILLER, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH…!! WACE IS NOT GOOD FOR SIERRA LEONE…!!
I am a victim of waec scam, i performed well in all my selected 9 subjects, but only to have a pass in english, why? But all the other 8 subjects i wrote them in english.
Please minister of education talk to them to release our withheld results, we need to reach our dreams and for us to attend University this year.
