No Sleep No Rest, thanks to WAEC and NECO.

It’s not been easy, this blog have been dormant for some time now. Not that am down right lazy but due to running a business in the most unconducive environment (Naija) for young entrepreneurs and business.

I have really been busy trying to register students for the forthcoming NECO GCE Nov/Dec exam. That would have been an easy task if not for the unresponsive nature of  NECOs registration website. The site design is so bad that some people have been reporting their woes getting to the site and losing money and entering the wrong information and uploading the wrong pictures of candidates.

Before now WAEC exam registration hold sway in the Bad Website sphere, WAEC problem arises from wrong planning and design of the website that can make or mar students future and career. Most of the people that registered for the ongoing WAEC Nov/Dec. exam are unable to go for the examinations due to the fact that they were placed in the wrong examination town and center.

Students that picked Ondo West Local Govt. Area in Ondo State as their examination town ended up been asked to go and write their exams in Ifon (about 250KM from Ondo).

WAEC and NECO resort to the use of the Internet registration in order to reduce/remove paper based entries that would have cost them lots of money and much hassles. But they fail to envisage the intense load that their server(s) will come under due to many queries from users.

Thanks be to God I have been through with WAEC registration and the exam is now is it’s last week, but not with some bitter complaint from people like me. Right now it’s NECO registration that am battling with. But when I was thinking am getting through another batch of entries are arriving in drove, this was due to those that are have to hurriedly grab NECO GCE registration form after failing in the just released result of last WAEC May/June exam (about 800,000 – 1,000,000) results were cancelled and withheld

For 4 days now I have not been able to get some good sleep and this has really been taking it’s toll in some ways but am up to the task afterall  I have been used to this regime of little or no sleep since 2002. LOL

Before I stop I will like NECO and WAEC to replan their online registration plan or else they will witness a showdown that won’t be too good for them and their intending candidates.
