Today’s Echo gathers that prospective private candidates of the 2020 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) – Second Series (Aug/Sept WAEC GCE)—across  Nigeria can now conveniently purchase their registration PINs on Remita’s website and pay through any of the multiple channels available including their debit card, internet banking, USSD and mobile wallet.
