Please Come And Collect Your Certificate- WAEC Begs Candidates

The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) on Monday appealed to candidates to come and collect the certificates of examination they took in the past years.

Head of Public Affairs Unit of the council, Mr. Damianus Ojijeogu, made the appeal while speaking with NAN. He said that the appeal became necessary as the council’s office was filled with unclaimed certificates and that there was need to decongest the store.

Ojijeogu noted that many certificates were lying in the council’s office many years after such certificates were declared and ready for collection. He said that such action was causing discomfort to staff, adding that there was little or no space available to continually store the certificates.

He said: “I want to appeal to the public and the candidates concerned, in particular, to make the effort to collect their certificates. These things are their properties, they paid for it and they should come forward to collect them. We have made several advertorials urging them to come and collect their certificates so that we can decongest our office.”
