The West African Examinations Commissions (WAEC), the major examination body for West African secondary school finalists is currently under fire.
As a result of an anti-corruption crack down on the examination bodies in Nigeria, a financial discrepancy was discovered by the minister of finance, Mrs Kemi Adeosun
And while Nigerians were stilll processing that information, these tweets dropped on Twitter.
It was alleged that an NGO had requested for the shortlist of the best students in the 2014/2015 WAEC examination.

However, the second photo in the tweet was the screenshot of the alleged response the NGO received from WAEC.

And after speaking with the NGO for confirmation…
To confirm the veracity of this story, I spoke to the CEO of EDUBOX and he confirmed WAEC requested N1.8million from them for processing.
