I asked our young engineers to create a prototype technology that could fix election integrity in Nigeria.
The way it will work is simple: voters come to the polling station, tap their voter’s card on an electronic tablet or machine, and the political parties for that election appear. They then tap to select a party, and fingerprint or facial authentication takes place.
Once that is confirmed, the vote is recorded in real time and also sent to a live server where everyone in the country can see it in real time.
This will be done in Enugu by our stars within the next 2 weeks.
They will build both the software and hardware components.
I’m raising a generation that sees solutions to every problem instead of dwelling too much on complaining.
Dear Alex.
Thanks for all you are doing.
This issue of WAEC result is now costing my son his admission at York University, Canada. We just received a mail advising that the University may not proceed with the admission due to the WAEC result which deviated significantly from his transcript, his SAT (1,510 of 1,600 points).
The same boy scored 331 in JAMB. The boy is weeping now.
But the school asked for any explanation of a general problem with the WAEC.
I am writing to check with you if I can have the link to the program you just had online now on YouTube. I watched it online and my son recorded on the phone but the file is too large to go through the Internet.
Please can you help?
We need to prove that the result ( 2As, 4Bs, and 3C) does not represent his true performance.
He finished at Loyola Jesuit and that is the school that is most affected by this problem. We know why. The school does not play ball.
Pls I need your help to save my boy from entering into depression.

Our first drone test flight worked, although it crash-landed. But tomorrow, our stars will improve it and perfect it.
This is the real definition of education for me. Every child has been so engaged, deeply involved, and super excited to learn and create things.
They are applying the knowledge of maths and science to create something meaningful.
The future is looking exciting.
WAEC is a very irresponsible organization. They have toyed with our children’s future for so long, with their age-long malpractices.
That needs to stop now. Our children’s future is all that matters.
We have now institutionalized ISEE, and it is now a formally registered non-governmental organization.
ISEE was rejected several times by the Corporate Affairs Commission until we amended the name to INITIATIVE FOR SCHOOL EXCELLENCE AND EDUCATION FOUNDATION.
Our chairman is Prof. Bath Nnaji, and I will continue to lead the vision.
Our members are Nathan Nwachuku, Eke Urum, and Tony Udeani.
The goal is for the vision to outlive our generation and lead us to civilization.
This is the beginning of greatness for Africa.
We now have 40,757 students registered to participate in the 2027 South East Maths and Science Olympiad.
This is now the largest academic competition in Africa.
We are identifying and grooming the talents who will drive Africa’s industrial revolution.
Within the next 10 years, we are determined to build the greatest workforce in Africa.
The future is being built, one child at a time.
We have now taken legal action against WAEC.
WAEC has 14 days to respond and take appropriate action, failing which we will proceed with litigation.
You can carefully read the details here https://t.co/x1JhbqoKe1 .
There appears to be a serious problem with the recently released results that WAEC has so far refused to publicly acknowledge and address. The consequences are not abstract. Real students are affected. Their admissions, opportunities and futures are at stake.
We cannot sit back and watch an institution as important as WAEC toy with the destinies of young people because it is unwilling to admit that something may have gone wrong.
If there is a glitch, admit it. Investigate it transparently. Fix it. And where students have been wrongly affected, correct their results.
That is what accountability looks like.
No institution should be too big to admit an error, especially when the future of a child may depend on it.
WAEC must be accountable. WAEC must be transparent. And every affected student deserves answers.
WAEC Nigeria is calling out aggrieved parents, affected schools, and student content creators.
The current leadership is a menace.
This is the same organization that has been forcing students to write exams at midnight for 2 straight years.
What a terrible and irresponsible organization.

Regular Nigerian couple was sprayed Money at their Wedding. EFCC is ready to Bumrush the Venue to arrest both the bride & the groom for “defacing the Naira” 🙄🤡
A random Nigerian guy who has been struggling and saving up for a while suddenly buys a nice Car. EFCC will illegally jump your fence, enter your apartment building at night and Break down your door just to Ask you the source of your wealth.
Its exam period, the Male hostel of a Nigerian University is filled with Boys reading and busy preparing on their Laptops. EFCC randomly breaks into the hostel apprehends all the boys under Bogus fraud Charges and makes them bail themselves to go home.
But since ystd APC politicians have been bringing out bundles of Mint Naira notes and sharing to the Electorate. Clearly engaging in Vote Buying live on Video. EFFC has suddenly developed Eye Problem. Not a single statement or arrest made. Tomorrow their handler will start writing wack rap lines for us to read.
Na Thunder Go still Faya that Eagle. 🙄
VOTE WISELY 2027.
What I am hearing about WAEC Nigeria is deeply troubling.
This year recorded the highest performance in the history of WAEC and they are not happy about it.
There is something many Nigerians do not understand about WAEC grading.
The score required for A1, B2, B3, C4 etc. may not simply be a permanently fixed number every year.
From the information available to me, WAEC applies statistical standardisation/normalisation based partly on the overall performance of candidates.
In simple English:
If a paper is unusually difficult and candidates generally perform poorly, the threshold required for a particular grade can effectively be lower.
If candidates perform extraordinarily well, the threshold can become much higher.
So hypothetically, what qualifies as an A in one examination could be around 60, while the statistical threshold in another circumstance could be 80, 90 or even higher.
Your final grade therefore may not tell the complete story of your raw score.
This year involved candidates sitting examinations under different modes, including computer-based/hybrid arrangements and the traditional paper-based system.
And there are serious allegations that questions circulated ahead of time in some paper-based centres.
If that happened on a significant scale, it could artificially inflate the overall performance of that population.
Then comes the critical question:
When WAEC carried out its standardisation, were candidates from fundamentally different examination conditions treated as one population?
Because if leaked questions artificially pushed one group’s scores upwards, and those abnormal scores subsequently influenced grade thresholds, an innocent student who genuinely scored very highly could suddenly appear statistically ordinary.
Imagine scoring what would ordinarily be excellent marks, only to receive a surprisingly poor grade because you were being compared against an abnormal national distribution.
That is the heart of what needs to be investigated.
And it wouldn’t affect only computer-based candidates.
Honest children who wrote paper-based examinations without cheating could also have been punished by the abnormal performance of people who had access to questions.
The innocent students potentially become the victims of the malpractice they never participated in.
This is why WAEC cannot simply tell Nigerians that these children failed.
Show us the data.
What were the raw scores?
What were the score distributions?
What thresholds produced A1, B2, B3, C4, C5 and C6 in each major subject?
Were those thresholds changed after marking?
Were computer-based and paper-based candidates standardised separately?
How were centres showing statistically abnormal performance treated?
And have results changed after candidates requested reviews?
Because I am also receiving disturbing reports that some people who aggressively challenged questionable results got their cases reconsidered, while millions of ordinary parents may not even know they can request a review.
If that is true, it is unacceptable.
A child whose parents have connections cannot have greater access to justice than a child sitting somewhere in a village.
And there is another dimension that must not be ignored: I am receiving serious allegations of internal management problems within WAEC Nigeria, including concerns about how staff who question certain decisions are treated.
Those allegations also deserve an independent investigation.
This is not an attack on WAEC.
It is a demand for accountability.
The Federal Ministry of Education and National Assembly should urgently invite the leadership of WAEC Nigeria.
Because behind every A1, C6 or F9 is not just a statistic.
There is a child. There is a family. There is a university admission. There is a scholarship. There is a future.
We cannot gamble with the destinies of an entire generation of Nigerian children.
