In reaction to an inquiry by a Nigerian on Twitter, Jamiu Kazeem Babatunde, WAEC said the timetable did not emanate from it
“I would love if WAEC can attend to this question of circulating time table,” Babatunde had inquired.
In its response, WAEC said it “did not release the timetable in circulation. As you can see, it was a timetable we had used for a previous examination. Please, disregard it.”
