The West African Examinations Council has cancelled the twelfth grade WAEC exams for the Monrovia and Harbel areas.
 

The head of National Office of WAEC Liberia, Eli Lumei, said the cancellation is due to mal-practice in the administration.
 

Mr. Lumei said the test was cancelled on the order of the Education Ministry.
 

He told Star Radio National security institutions would conduct investigation into the conduct of the exams in the two cities.
 

He said a new schedule for the test would be announced at the close of the investigation.
 

He said ninth and sixth grade exams would not begin next week.

I think it's never too late to do the right thing and the ministry is doing the right thing by cancelling these papers. unfortunately, this has been an age old practice by individuals within the system to enrich themselves at every examination season by selling the papers to students, etc. i hope those responsible will be penalize severely and the ministry should also send a strong signals to school heads to weed out those teachers that engage in dubious activities to continue to degrade the educational standard in the country.
