Confused people!

Hope Mr Adamu Adamu won't refute this later? It's a good development but let's still keep our fingers crossed

Does this mean the same questions will be used in other West African countries? Will our jamb/waec lesson centres travel to other countries to get the questions if they are writing before Nigeria?

Government of to and fro; today yes tomorrow NO!

Again, has the junior Minister got the nod from his superior before making the announcement?

This Almajiri government is averse to anything education.

Can we see a copy of the timetable instead of confusing people with all these talk.
