Certificate saga: Only Buhari can request for result verification –
WAECThe West African Examinations Council, WAEC, has said that
General Muhammadu Buhari can apply to the examination body
for the verification of his results. It said such verification can only
be forwarded to the institution specified by the candidate.
WAEC Deputy Director, Public Affairs, Lagos, Mr. Yusuf Ari in a
telephone conversation with Vanguard Wednesday said, “No
individual has the legal right to approach WAEC for the verification
of another person’s result except the owner of the result.”
He explained that the constitutional right vested on the Freedom of
Information law does not include invasion of privacy adding, “The
certificate in question belongs to Muhammadu Buhari and he alone
has the right to apply for verification.“Be that as it may, WAEC
cannot take any action except, the owner of the certificate asked
us to do so. We are an independent body, therefore, we cannot be
partisan on this issue,” he said.
According to Ari, all the former Head of State needs to do is to
apply by giving WAEC the name of his school, Examination number
and year of the examination and the result will be verified.
However, after verification of the results, it will be forwarded to the
institution and not the owner of the results.
