BREAKING!!! Nigerian Students Won't Write 2020 WAEC β€” FG

The Federal Government has announced that Nigerian students will not write the forthcoming West African Examination Council (WAEC) examinations, Igbere TV reports.

Minister of education, Adamu Adamu, disclosed this on Wednesday while briefing journalists after a virtual Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting.

Mr. Adamu added that there is no date for school resumption yet.

Schools, he said, will remain closed until it is safe to reopen them.

Adamu said he would prefer that students lose an academic year than be exposed to coronavirus.

The minister appealed to states that have announced resumption dates for schools to reconsider their position so as not to jeopardise the lives of the students.

β€œIt is not safe to reopen schools now,” Adamu said.

Stakeholders in the education sector recently fixed August 3 and September 5 as dates for the conduct of the 2020 WAEC examinations.

Adamu, however, said the examination body cannot determine resumption date of schools for Nigeria.
