The JAMB helmsman, who noted that although only God could sustain any reform effort, said as much as humanly possible, mentoring, courage in leadership and regular training would help to sustain the anti-corruption legacy of the board. Oloyede said one of the behavioural attitudes that could help fight corruption is the ability to resist and reject the activities of those who are ready to recruit one into corrupt practices by offering what one least expects in life.
On her part, Deputy Country Director of MacArthur Foundation, Dr. Amina Salihu, said the Foundation had to engage NISER and other top government policy think-tanks to facilitate anti-corruption efforts.
