GOOD LUCK TO ALL B.E.C.E. CANDIDATES
The National Youth Wing of the New Patriotic Party extends this special goodwill message to all Candidates for the Basic Education Certificate Examination (B.E.C.E.) which commences today Monday, June 05, 2017.
As this exam marks a very crucial stepping stone in the academic pursuits of all candidates, it is the hope and prayer of the entire youth wing that the Almighty will crown all your efforts and toil with success so as to justify all the investments made in you by your respective families and country at large.
Again, we wish to make a passionate appeal to the West African Examination Council (W.A.E.C) to take all the necessary steps to ensure that the integrity and sanctity of this year’s examination is preserved to the fullest.
W.A.E.C. has a responsibility to ensure that the perennial pain, inconvenience and psychological trauma inflicted on both parents and students as a result of its failure to observe best practices is avoided this year.
Finally, the Wing entreats all candidates to make a conscious effort to abide by all the rules and regulations associated with the conduct of this year’s examination.
We wish you all the very best of luck.
Thank you.
…Signed…
Sammi Awuku
