The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has said that any
candidates found to be involved in any form of exam malpractice
in the 2019 UTME will have his or her result cancelled instead
of deduction of marks as being speculated. The Board’s Head,
Media and Information, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, disclosed this in an
interview newsmen on Sunday in Lagos.
He stated that the rumour that JAMB was deducting marks from the
scores f candidates with proven cases of malpractice is not
true.According to him, once any evidence of malpractice has been
established against any candidate, the result of such candidates
will be cancelled out-rightly.
He further explained that if the board establish any case of
infraction or examination malpractice in any centre too, such
centre will be shut down and the entire results of candidates
who wrote in that centre from the commencement of the
examination, which was April 11 to the end will automatically be
cancelled.
He added that the affected candidates in such centres will be
rescheduled immediately for the examination in another centre as
was the case in some centres in Abia.
He added that the Board made several arrests of persons caught
trying to undermine the integrity of the examination and process
while it lasted, just like it shut down centres that fell short
of standards.
Benjamin said that the Prof. Ishaq Oloyede-led JAMB has zero
tolerance for any form of corruption, which includes examination
malpractice.
