VIDEO: Oyo WAEC candidates sit for WASSCE practical in darkness
A disturbing scene has emerged where candidates sitting for the 2026 West African Senior School Certificate Examination were sitting for their Agricultural Science practical examination late at night without electricity, using lanterns and mobile phone flashlights.
A video obtained by our correspondent showed candidates writing the examination in darkness, with some using alternative sources of light to complete their papers.
The development has sparked concerns among parents over the conduct of the examination and the safety of candidates.
Reacting to the incident, a cleric, Pastor S.O. Solarin, criticised the late delivery of examination materials to centres, warning that prolonged delays could expose students to security risks.
