APC Strategy Don Cast!
Looking back, itโs clear that much of it was a smokescreen. The threats, thuggery, intimidation, ballot snatching, federal might, vote buying, and security partisanship were meant to create fear. The lesson is simple: stand your ground and resist the pressure, both at the polling unit and at the collation centre.
I have now received further disturbing reports from multiple schools, teachers, parents and students about what happened during this 2026 WAEC examination.
In some examination centres, question papers were reportedly insufficient. I received reports of as many as FOUR students sharing ONE question paper.
Think about that.
Students prepared for years for an examination that could determine university admission, scholarships and, in many cases, the direction of their lives only to enter examination halls without enough question papers.
There are also serious reports concerning the security of examination materials, including allegations that some papers or answer materials circulated before the appropriate examination period. These allegations must be independently investigated, not internally explained away.
Even basic examination materials raise questions. Students have reported that calculators and other materials they expected WAEC to provide were unavailable in some centres.
We need an independent forensic investigation of the entire 2026 examination process from question-paper production and distribution to examination security, marking, CBE systems, grading, result processing and eventual release.
WAEC should preserve and make available for independent scrutiny the examination records and, subject to appropriate privacy safeguards, provide candidates access to their scripts including relevant paper-based scripts and CBE records.
If an independent investigation establishes that systemic failures were serious enough to compromise the integrity of the examination, then Nigeria must be prepared to consider every remedy necessary, including remarking, reprocessing results, rescheduling affected papers or, in the most extreme case, invalidating affected examinations.
No institution is bigger than the future of millions of Nigerian children.
Behind every WAEC result is a human being.
A child waiting for admission.
A scholarship that could disappear.
Parents who have sacrificed everything.
A family whose plans may depend on those grades.
This is why WAEC cannot be allowed to investigate WAEC and simply tell Nigerians that everything is fine.
The Federal Ministry of Education, National Assembly and other relevant authorities should urgently demand answers and establish an independent investigation into the conduct and processing of the 2026 WAEC examination.
If WAEC did everything correctly, an independent investigation will clear it.
But if something went terribly wrong, Nigerians deserve to know what happened, who was responsible, how many children were affected and how their futures will be restored.
This is no longer merely an examination issue. It is a question of institutional integrity, accountability and justice for Nigerian children.
We cannot gamble with the destinies of an entire generation.
We travelled to Kogi today, and I honestly still cannot believe that a state can be in such a deteriorating condition in 2026. I simply donโt want to believe what I saw.
Some of the schools we visited had no roofs, no chairs, no tables and barely any basic infrastructure. The roads were terrible, electricity was a major issue, and the general state of things was deeply distressing.
And yet, money is allocated to the state every single month. So, where is the governance? Where is the accountability? What exactly are the leaders doing with the resources entrusted to them?
What I saw today has left me broken. Our leaders have no business being this comfortable while the people they were elected to serve are left without basic necessities. There is no excuse for this level of neglect and gross mismanagement in 2026.
Nigeria deserves better. Kogi deserves better. And Nigerians must demand for good governance.
