Kofi Adams to lead class action against WAEC

National Organizer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has promised to lead the campaign to sue the West Africa Examination Council [WAEC] for cancelling five papers in the ongoing Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE).

Kofi Adams who described the situation as unfortunate called for a thorough investigations into the issue, starting with officials of WAEC.

“I also have my wards that have been seriously affected by this cancellation. I find it hard to understand how their systems work. Officials of WAEC need to be questioned because I believe they are the masterminds,” he said on on Accra-based Okay FM on Thursday.

WAEC cancelled five papers in the ongoing examination due to leakage of the papers.

In a statement signed by the deputy director of public affairs Agnes Teye Cudjoe Wednesday – WAEC is disappointed in the leakage of the Mathematics, Integrated science, Social Studies and English papers on social media platforms including Facebook and WhatsApp.

But Kofi Adams believes the cancellation will not only affect the candidates but the parents as well therefore called on parents who are planning to sue WAEC to do so to prevent a recur.

“I will lead a crusade to make sure they face the law. Why should they be so mean to students who have toiled so hard to learn? It is so frustrating” he noted.
