Students anticipating the 2022 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) and West Africa Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) may be disappointed owing to the government’s massive debt to the West African Examination Council (WAEC).
The Minority, through its Ranking Member on the Education Committee, Dr. Clement Apaak, has suggested that WAEC’s activities have been significantly impacted by its debt.

The Minority thus demands that the government immediately repay the GHS21 million it owes to WAEC.
Dr. Apaak, the Member of Parliament (MP) for Builsa South, said that WAEC would require GHS 96 million to prepare the 2022 examinations.
Therefore, he has requested the government to appropriate funds for this purpose.
