The West Africa Examinations Council (WAEC) has praised the Ghanaian government for providing it with a befitting office complex in Accra.
The Registrar to the council, Dr Iyi Uwadiae, commended the Ghanaian government in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Friday in Accra.
Uwadiae said the Ghanaian government is in the forefront of promoting the council’s activities.
According to him, the new permanent office complex will greatly enhance the operations of the council.
“We have a new office complex – our permanent office headquarters.
“We have been in a temporary office since the birth of this organisation over 64 years now.
“The government of Ghana, where we are located, it’s their duty to provide for the headquarter staff, accommodation (residential) and office accommodation.
“So, they have completed this edifice for us and we are moving in now, hoping that the government will commission it any moment from now.
“We use this opportunity to thank the government and people of Ghana for living up to expectations of providing accommodation for staff.
“There is nothing as good as you leaving home in the morning for a place where you can do your work.
“So, we are happy and we are grateful to the government of Ghana.’’
Uwadiae said the office complex was big enough for some of the rooms to be used as computer based centres for the conduct of aptitude test.
“We have offices for the staff; every floor has a conference room, then we have the big conference room for our board meetings.
“And we have a library for the research.
“When we have money, we hope to also have some of the rooms to become Computer Based centres.
“The complex is big, so some of the rooms will be converted to computer-based testing centres for our aptitude tests.’’
NAN recalls that the council on Tuesday in Ghana held the annual “Registrars Staff Appraisal Committee Meeting” to appraise international of the examination body.
