BREAKING: WAEC Candidates Relocated To Safer Communities After Oyo Terror Attack

The relocation followed coordinated attacks on schools in communities including Ahoro-Esiele, Yawota and Oko Ile, where armed terrorists abducted pupils, teachers and residents.

Students taking the ongoing West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) in parts of Oyo State affected by recent terrorist attacks in Oriire Local Government Area have been relocated to safer communities to continue their exams.

Residents of the affected communities told SaharaReporters on Wednesday that candidates from schools attacked by gunmen had been moved to safer towns, while parents now bear additional transport and feeding costs amid growing fear and uncertainty.

The relocation followed coordinated attacks on schools in communities including Ahoro-Esiele, Yawota and Oko Ile, where armed terrorists abducted pupils, teachers and residents.

Community members told SaharaReporters that students from affected public schools were moved to Ikoyi-Ile, while some private school candidates were transferred to Ogbomoso town to continue their examination.
