National Assembly Intervenes In Age Limit Controversy For WASSCE

The proposal, announced by the Minister of Education, Professor Tahir Mamman, on Sunday, has sparked widespread criticism from various quarters, including former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar and several civil society organizations (CSOs).

Critics have described the policy as “archaic and draconian,” urging the government to halt its implementation and convene a meeting with education sector stakeholders to deliberate on the matter.
