Wetin dey happen? E be like say wahala don burst for the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) results upload for the Central Admission Processing System (CAPS) wey Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) set up. Parents and secondary school leavers dey vex as dem no fit upload their results for the portal wey supposed make everything easy. Na wetin we call ‘system error’ naim dem dey receive anytime dem try.
One parent wey no wan make her pikin miss admission, Fatimah Ajayi, talk say, “My daughter and I waka go the CBT centre on Wednesday, only to find out say dem no fit upload 2025 WAEC results for CAPS. Dem no even sabi when e go fit work again.” (Chai! Talk say you no get result, na sacrafice to your happiness.)
Another parent wey dey worried, Aliu Kehinde, share him own frustration too. He talk say, “We hear say JAMB don suspend the upload of WAEC results for the Central Admissions portal. CBT centres dey tell us say dem fit upload my son’s new result, wey better pass his former score.” (At this rate, e go better make dem just dey call JAMB the ‘What’s Going On Board’.)
For social media, people dey complain like say dem no get person to talk to. One user, Abayomi Oluwatobiloba, with the handle #anikeola831, post for X (formerly Twitter), “Good day, JAMB na wetin happen? We no fit upload SSCE results on CAPS, wetin we go do?” Ain’t nobody got time for senseless wahala. Another user, Ridtech, wey get the handle #Ridtech3, talk say, “2025 portal for uploading WAEC results on JAMB CAPS don lock. When e go open?” (No be we start this drama for 2025 o.)
As the complaints dey increase like fresh palm wine, JAMB spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin, come out come clear the air say, “No be true say we don suspend the upload of WAEC results for CAPS. People dey upload their results. We never suspend anything.” (Chai! See as e dey defend JAMB like Naija mama wey dey protect her pikin.)
He further explain say WAEC get some problem wey make candidates dey wait, but now e don clear. “Even today, people don dey upload their results. No wahala at all,” Benjamin conclude. So, my padi, if you dey wait for your WAEC upload, just hold your side, e go soon dey shine.
As we dey keep our ears to the ground, make we dey hope say this wahala go fit resolve for our pikin benefit. E no easy to carry all these palava on top head like say we dey balance glass of palm wine wey no go spill.
