JAMB Reacts To 'snake Swallowing N36 Million' Report by kirajustice: 11:36am On Feb 12, 2018

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB has reacted to a report that went viral a few days ago that a snake swallowed N36 million belonging to the board.

In a statement by its spokesperson, Franklin Benjamin, the Board said it was a pure case of criminality and fraud by one of its Staff.

It was earlier reported by an online news platform that a mystery snake was said to have sneaked into the accounts office of the board in Markurdi, Benue state and swallowed N36 million cash belonging JAMB.

This development occurred when a team of auditors dispatched by JAMB to take inventory of sold and unsold scratch cards and recover any funds generated or embezzled during sales periods.

JAMB candidates usually purchase scratch cards to gain access to the Board’s website for either registration or for checking their admission status but that has been stopped by the registrar, Ishaq Oloyede. The report read;

“A sales clerk, Philomina Chieshe, told JAMB registrar and his team that she could not account for N36 million she made in previous years before the abolition of scratch cards. In the course of interrogation, Philomena denied the allegations that she stole the money but confessed that her housemaid connived with another JAMB staff, Joan Asen, to “spiritually” (through a snake) steal the money from the vault in the account office”.

Speaking on the fraud, Benjamin said;

“It is natural for the office to account for what they have after the sale of scratch cards has been stopped and we discovered that lots of money was missing in Markurdi and other offices.

There are procedures in the civil service so the whole thing is still under investigation. She was queried, she appeared before disciplinary committee, although she confessed that money was missing and a snake swallowed it. Unfortunately, she is calling one Joan’s name which did not appear in the investigation at all. Joan only recommended a house help for her.

Of course, the management did not believe the story. She is just trying to put an excuse forward. These are things the registrar is trying to unravel to put the board on the right footing. We had a case where one of the staff said he had an accident on his way and the scratch cards got burnt but only for us to discover that they were used because they all had serial numbers."

If this tyrant called Buhari did not concede defeat when he wasn't in power

Is it now that he has tasted honey that he will concede defeat?

But, let me remind him that he is small compared to Nebuchadnezzar. Nebuchadnezzar ate grasses for 7years

If Buhari tries anything funny, he will lick the "poo" of his cows for 8years

Tyrant

There is nothing we hear in nigeria, there's nothing that can't happen in Nigeria. When one thinks, he has seen or heard it all, then expect something else from Nigeria.

These are the systematic flaws of an overcentralized country.

Restructuring will allow states to have their own separate JAMB and control will be smaller and more efficient

Controlling everything from Abuja is the major reason for corruption and leakages

Welcome to Nigeria, A country where unimaginable things happen. One day, we will just hear that Nigeria has been relocated to Mediterranean sea. Everybody will wake up and see his/herself in the middle of the sea.
