WAEC Releases 2026 Computer-Based Results The West African Examinations Council, WAEC, has officially released the results of the Computer-Based West African Senior School Certificate Examination, CB-WASSCE, for Private Candidates, 2026 First Series.

WAEC made this known in a statement issued on X on Friday, noting that candidates who sat for the examination can access their results within 12 hours.

According to the council, the timely release of the results reflects its commitment to improving service delivery through the adoption of technology and efficient examination processes.

It also expressed appreciation to stakeholders for their support in ensuring the successful conduct of the examination.

“The result of CB-WASSCE for Private Candidates, 2026–First Series, has been released. Candidates can access their results within the next 12 hours. Our thanks to all stakeholders for cooperating with us to achieve this feat,” the statement said.

In a video address to the United Nations Human Rights Council, Abbas Araghchi slammed the “calculated, phased assault” on an elementary school “in the city of Minab, south of Iran, where more than 175 students and teachers were slaughtered in cold blood”.

The attack happened on February 28, the day the United States and Israel launched the war with attacks across Iran, with Tehran in turn striking targets in Israel and Gulf nations.

A US Tomahawk cruise missile hit the school due to a targeting mistake, according to the preliminary findings of a US military investigation reported by The New York Times.

The Times said the US military was bombing an adjacent Iranian base of which the school building was formerly a part and target coordinates were set using outdated data.

President Donald Trump intially suggested that Iran itself may have been responsible — despite Iran not having Tomahawk missiles.

Speaking during an urgent council debate focused on the February 28 strike, Araghchi stressed that “at a time when the American-Israeli aggressors, in their own assertions, possess the most advanced technologies, and the highest-precision military and data systems, no one can believe that the attack on the school was anything other than deliberate and intentional”.

The strike, he said, “was a war crime and a crime against humanity, one that demands unequivocal condemnation by all and unambiguous accountability for the culprits”

“This atrocity cannot be justified, cannot be concealed, and must not be met with silence and indifference,” the minister said.

The attack, he insisted, “was not a mere ‘incident’ nor a ‘miscalculation’.”

“The United States’ contradictory remarks aimed at justifying their crime could not, in any manner, elude their responsibility,” he said.

Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen is expected to wear an arm guard upon his return following surgery for a fracture.

The 27-year-old forward suffered a hand fracture following a collision with Liverpool’s Ibrahima Konaté during their UEFA Champions League Round of 16 clash last week.

Following the incident, Osimhen underwent surgery earlier this week, with his recovery projected to take about six weeks. While he is expected to return to the pitch towards the end of the season, he may need to wear special protective gear on the arm.

“If Victor Osimhen’s treatment process progresses as planned, he can wear the jersey with a special protective splint if needed,” Özkurt was quoted.

The striker already wears a protective mask on his eyes, which has become symbolic following a cheekbone surgery in 2021. This specialised device is designed to immobilise the forearm and wrist to support the bone during the healing process. It reduces pain and prevents further damage by restricting unnecessary movement, typically featuring adjustable straps for compression and breathable padding for comfort.

Turkish media reports suggest the Super Eagles striker could return in time for the Istanbul derby against Fenerbahçe on April 26 at the earliest, depending on the progress of his rehabilitation. If he returns later than expected, he would likely feature only in the final two league matches—against Antalyaspor at home and Kasımpaşa away.

Osimhen will also hope the club progresses to the final of the Turkish Cup, where they are currently in the quarter-finals with a match-up against Gençlerbirliği.

The forward has tallied 19 goals and seven assists in 29 appearances this season, powering Galatasaray to a four-point advantage in the league, while also contributing seven goals and three assists in 10 UEFA Champions League games before their exit.
