The West Africa Examinations Council (WAEC) has cancelled the Government Paper 1 and 2 of the on-going West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).
A statement copied to the Ghana News Agency on Monday said the papers would be re-administered on May 17.
The statement said a foreign material was found on some students during a routine inspection on April 22.
“In pursuance of its quest to inculcate moral uprightness in the youth, demonstrate its abhorrence for examination malpractice of any sort and safeguard the integrity of the on-going examination, the WAEC has cancelled the Government 1 and 2 papers”, the statement said.
The statement reminded heads of schools to make the necessary arrangements for the affected candidates to re-sit the papers.
