Accredited secondary schools in Nigeria are projected to spend about N1.6 trillion on computers to meet the West African Examinations Council (WAEC)’s requirement for mandatory Computer-Based Testing (CBT) approval of centres for the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE). WAEC mandated that every school should have at least 250 functional computer systems, a robust server, a local area network, CCTV cameras, and other essential infrastructure to qualify as a CBT centre for the WASSCE 2025.
