NUGS To Demonstrate On February 25 Over Withheld WASSCE Results

The National Union of Ghana Students (NUGS) has announced plans to stage a demonstration on Tuesday, February 25, 2025, in protest against the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) over the withholding and cancellation of results for some students who sat for the 2024 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).

NUGS has officially notified the Greater Accra Regional Police Command of the planned protest, emphasizing their demand for fairness and transparency in WAEC’s assessment and result management processes.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, February 18, NUGS described WAEC’s actions as unjust and an abuse of discretionary power.

“This demonstration is a protest against what we see as an injustice and an abuse of discretionary power by WAEC. NUGS demands urgent intervention to rectify this situation and ensure that affected students are given a fair opportunity to continue their education.

“We call on all affected students, parents, concerned stakeholders, and all students to join us in this fight for justice,” the statement read.

NUGS strongly condemned WAEC’s handling of the results, stating that the delays and cancellations have “unfairly” impacted thousands of students.

“Even for those whose results have been released, the delay has rendered them ineligible for admission into public tertiary institutions, as all admission processes have now been concluded,” the union added.

The protest aims to pressure WAEC and relevant authorities to take swift action to address the concerns of affected students and prevent similar occurrences in the future.
