But WAEC says the report by the think tank is replete with factual inaccuracies.
Head of the Legal Department at WAEC, Rev. Victor Brew, Speaking at a press conference to address the supposed inaccuracies said all options are on the table, including legal action against Africa Education Watch over its misleading report.
“All options are on the table including a legal suit. These are things that management has to first strategize on. Don’t be surprised if you hear of it in the coming days. But I can’t tell the actual date this will happen.”
