The National Union of Ghana Students (NUGS) has threatened to go on a nationwide protest if the West African Education Council (WAEC) fails to release withheld 2024 WASSCE results within a week.
Speaking at a media briefing, NUGS President, Daniel Korley, noted that failure to meet the demands of the union will result in a nationwide demonstration and also called for an institutional reform within WAEC to prevent unfairness against students in the future.
He again explained that the credibility of WAEC is at stake if the students and public lose trust in its fairness.
According to the union, their complaint was formally addressed to WAEC on January 2, 2025, but the council has not yet replied, and added that the union is likely to seek legal intervention on the matter.
NUGS condemned the practice of cancelling the entire results of students guilty of examination malpractice in a single subject arguing that only the affected paper should be cancelled.
The union urged the students to remain calm but also demand their rights, assuring them of NUGS commitment to serve them.
