The West African Examinations Council (WAEC), Nigeria, has rescheduled the second series of the 2020 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) for private candidates to November 30.
The examination was earlier scheduled to start on November 14, 2020.
In a statement on Monday evening, the spokesperson of the council, Demianus Ojijeogu, said the examination, which was initially scheduled to commence on Saturday, November 14, 2020, will no longer hold as planned, due to circumstances beyond its control.

He said the council wished to reassure candidates that the new timetable for the conduct of the examination will be released soon.
