JAMB Arrests Father Writing UTME For Son.
Joint Admission and Matriculation Board, has arrested a father writing exams for his son during the ongoing Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.
The board warned that it has improved its technology check for those engaging in all forms of examination malpractices.
Speaking in Kaduna on Wednesday, the JAMB Registrar, Prof Ishaq Oloyede who inspected the UTME centres in Kaduna, expressed satisfaction over the 2024 examination, which had 1.94 million students this year.
He, however, frowned at few cases of impersonation, adding that some people now have multiple National Identity Number, NIN, which the examination body would take up with the Identification Management body.
He said JAMB needs support of highly populated states like Lagos, to build mega CBT centres like that of Kaduna, which accommodates 4,000 candidates per day.
