Waec vows to publish names of candidates involved in exam malpractices

A bold move by WAEC!

According to reports, the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has vowed to publish the names of candidates involved in exam malpractices in the upcoming West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).

This decision is aimed at serving as a deterrent to would-be malpractices and to uphold the integrity of the examination process. WAEC has been battling the issue of exam malpractices for years, and this move is seen as a significant step towards addressing the problem.

By publishing the names of candidates involved in malpractices, WAEC hopes to shame and embarrass those who engage in such behavior, thereby discouraging others from following suit. This approach is also expected to send a strong message to parents, schools, and the general public that exam malpractices will not be tolerated.

It's worth noting that WAEC has been taking various measures to prevent and detect exam malpractices, including the use of biometric technology, CCTV cameras, and the deployment of exam supervisors and invigilators.

The publication of names of candidates involved in malpractices is expected to be a significant deterrent, and it will be interesting to see how this move affects the behavior of candidates in the upcoming WASSCE.

What do you think about this move by WAEC? Do you think it will be effective in reducing exam malpractices?
