2019 UTME: JAMB arrests 2 children over alleged examination malpractice
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the arrest was made during a monitoring tour of various CBT centres in Lagos State by the board’s Registrar, Prof. Is’haq Oloyede.
“We were on our normal monitoring when this alarm came in that this centre, there was an examination malpractice that took place. “What they did here was to deliberately disconnect the CCTV, thinking that we would not be able to track whatever happened here through our central CCTV in Abuja. According to the registrar, with this infraction, the centre will seize to continue with the board’s examination with immediate effect.
He revealed that some desperate parents were in the habit of paying up to 10 persons to sit for the examination for just one child of theirs.
