The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has postponed the English Language examination scheduled to hold on Saturday, September 22 in the ongoing 2nd series WASC examination for private candidates.

The English Language examination will now hold September 29, 2018. This information was disclosed by WAEC on its official twitter handle.

The tweet reads, “English Language papers will be written on September 29, 2018. Please, go to our registration site (http://registration.waecdirect.org) and download the timetable.”

The reason for this change was not disclosed but it is being speculated that it may be connected to the Osun State Gubernatorial election scheduled to hold on Saturday 22nd September 2018 during which movement within the state would be restricted.

Candidates are therefore advised to take note of the change and inform others as well
