List of Nigerian Secondary Schools Tagged as ‘Miracle Centers’ Banned by WAEC over Examination Malpractices
Vondigest reports that thirty-five (35) secondary schools in Rivers State tagged as ‘miracle centers’ have been banned from presenting candidates for the West African Secondary School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).
The schools were reportedly banned over their involvement in examination malpractices. The River state’s Ministry of Education has forwarded the letter de-recognising the affected schools to their owners, PM News reported.
Vondigest gathers that the letter was signed by the Deputy Registrar/Zonal Coordinator for Head of National office of West African Examinations Council (WAEC), S.D. Kum. According to Kum, all the schools affected by the ban will not register candidates for the examination until further notice.
This online platform understands that some schools in the state have acquired the notoriety of being called “Miracle Centers” where all manner of examination malpractices are allowed.
It was learnt that the “miracle centers” are patronised by desperate candidates and their parents. See full list of the banned schools below:
