 FG Mandates Full CBT for WAEC, NECO Exams by 2026 to Curb Malpractice


The Federal Government has directed the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) and the National Examinations Council (NECO) to transition to full Computer-Based Testing (CBT) for all their examinations by May or June 2026, as part of efforts to eliminate exam malpractice.


The Minister of Education, Dr. Tunji Alausa, announced this during a monitoring exercise of ongoing exams alongside Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) officials in Bwari on Monday. Over 2 million candidates are registered for the exams across more than 800 centers nationwide.


Alausa revealed that WAEC and NECO will begin administering objective papers via CBT starting November 2025, with full adoption of CBT for both objective and essay components by mid-2026. “If JAMB can successfully conduct CBT exams for over 2.2 million candidates, WAEC and NECO can do the same,” he said, emphasizing that the move would curb examination malpractices.

The minister also disclosed that a committee reviewing national examination standards is expected to submit recommendations next month.


JAMB Registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, clarified that the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) has always started at 8:00 a.m., with candidates required to arrive by 6:30 a.m. for accreditation. He dismissed complaints about early arrival times, stressing the need for pre-exam screening.


Oloyede debunked claims of candidates being assigned to unchosen centers, stating that investigations found no such cases. He reported that 1.6 million of the 2.03 million registered candidates have completed their exams, with approximately 50,000 still to write.


The registrar also revealed that over 40 candidates have been arrested for malpractices, including impersonation and attempts to smuggle exam questions using hidden cameras. Additionally, more than 41,000 registered candidates were found to be underage.
