The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has received additional GHC 35 million from the Ministry of Education (MOE) to complete the scanning of objective answer cards.
A statement issued and signed by Mr John K. Kapi, Head, Public Affairs, WAEC, said the council “is working around the clock to ensure that WASSCE 2024 for School Candidates is released by the end of the month.”
Meanwhile, the Council has appealed to the Ministry of Education to release the outstanding balance to enable it to pay Supervisors, invigilators, script checkers, suppliers of examination materials and to meet other financial obligations.
Earlier, WAEC indicated that the Ministry owed it GHC118 million cedis, saying non-payment of the amount would delay the release of results.
The Ministry of Education through the Finance Ministry issued a cheque for GHC25 million.
On December 25, 2024, the council said it had received an additional GHC 35 million. The outstanding balance to be paid is GHC 58 million.
