President Muhammadu Buhari has come under heavy fire over the cancellation of the 2020 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).
KanyiDaily recalled on Wednesday, July 8, 2020, the Federal Government had declared that Nigerian schools would not be reopened until the COVID-19 pandemic drastically subsides.
Consequently, the government said Nigerian students would not participate in Senior Secondary Certificate Examinations (SSCE) scheduled to commence on August 4, 2020.
Reacting is series of tweets on Friday, Reno Omokri, a former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, described the cancellation of WAEC as evil.
Omokri wondered why the Federal Government cancelled an examination but did not cancel the forthcoming Edo State governorship election. He said President Buhari wants to spread illiteracy across Nigeria.
