The introduction of online examinations is a significant milestone for FUOYE, as it marks the first time the institution has implemented such a system. The initiative is designed to run for one month, with examinations scheduled daily from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. This new approach is not only expected to streamline the examination process but also to enhance the overall student experience.

Professor Adelani Tijani, a key figure in the implementation of this system, expressed optimism about the transition, saying, “We are just pioneering this system, and to the glory of God, it is progressing smoothly.” The university has also established strict monitoring mechanisms to prevent examination malpractice, which has been a persistent issue in traditional paper-based exams.

Dr. Oyeleke Abiodun noted the positive impact of the new system, stating, “The level of examination malpractice has reduced significantly compared to what is obtainable in paper-based exams.” This reduction is a crucial factor in maintaining the integrity of academic assessments and ensuring that students are evaluated fairly.

In addition to the online examination initiative, FUOYE has opened postgraduate admissions for the 2026/2027 academic session, with a focus on attracting qualified candidates. The application fee for postgraduate admission is set at 20,000 Naira, and prospective students must meet specific score requirements to be considered for various programs. For instance, a minimum score of 60 is required for Ph.D. admission, while 55 is necessary for M.Phil/Ph.D. candidates.

Moreover, the university has outlined the duration for its Master’s degree programs, which ranges from a minimum of 18 months to a maximum of 24 months. Ph.D. programs require a minimum of three sessions and can extend up to five sessions, reflecting the institution’s commitment to rigorous academic standards.

As FUOYE continues to innovate and adapt to modern educational practices, it is clear that the leadership, under the guidance of the Vice-Chancellor, is dedicated to enhancing the quality of education provided. “We deeply appreciate the Vice-Chancellor for this initiative. He has a clear vision and good plans for the university,” added Professor Tijani, emphasizing the collective support for these transformative changes.

With the successful launch of online examinations and the opening of postgraduate admissions, FUOYE is poised to make significant strides in the academic landscape. The university’s efforts to modernize its examination processes are expected to yield positive outcomes, not only for the institution but also for its students, who will benefit from a more efficient and secure assessment environment.

The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has recently released the results for the 2026 First Series of the Computer-Based WASSCE for private candidates. Prior to this announcement, expectations were high as the examination was conducted from January 28 to February 14, 2026, with many candidates eager to see how they performed.

This year, a total of 10,523 candidates registered for the examination, marking an 11.49% increase from 2025. Out of these, 10,480 candidates sat for the examination across 166 centres nationwide. The results revealed that only 30.95% of candidates obtained credit or above in at least five subjects, including English Language and Mathematics.

Specifically, 4,598 candidates achieved credits in five subjects, while 3,429 candidates managed to secure credits that included both English and Mathematics. Additionally, 8,418 candidates (80.32%) had fully processed results, whereas 2,062 candidates (19.68%) had some subjects still under processing.

Unfortunately, 75 candidates had their results withheld due to alleged examination malpractice, a situation that has raised concerns among stakeholders. WAEC has indicated that investigations are ongoing, and decisions regarding these cases will be communicated directly to the affected candidates.

According to WAEC, the swift processing of results can be attributed to their growing reliance on digital examination systems. This shift has not only streamlined operations but has also improved the overall efficiency of result processing.

Moreover, provisions were made for candidates with special needs during the examination, with 43 such candidates registered, including those who are visually and hearing impaired. Moyosola Adesina, a WAEC spokesperson, confirmed that adequate measures were taken to ensure these candidates had a conducive examination environment.

The marking of scripts was conducted at three venues: Lagos, Enugu, and Kaduna, with 608 examiners participating in the coordination and marking exercise. This collaborative effort highlights WAEC’s commitment to maintaining high standards in the examination process.

As the education sector continues to evolve, the implications of these results will be closely monitored by educators, students, and policymakers alike. The portal for candidates to access their results is available at https://certrequest.waec.ng/.

Overall, the 2026 WASSCE results reflect both the challenges and achievements faced by candidates, with the examination body striving to enhance the integrity and accessibility of the examination process.
