Some suspects who were allegedly caught while perpetrating certain irregularities in the ongoing registration for the 2017 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations have reportedly confessed to spending over N 20 m to construct a radio platform with which they hacked into JAMB ’s registration portal .

Saturday PUNCH had reported that the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps arrested no less than five individuals who had deployed fake biometric capturing machines to register applicants .

The Spokesperson of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, Dr . Fabian Benjamin , in a statement issued in Abuja on Saturday, said, “These registration thieves deployed fake biometric capturing mechanisms and super -imposed registration slips just to satisfy the curiosity of innocent candidates that their registration was successful .

“And on the day of examination , such candidates ’ data would either be edited, or not found on the JAMB data base .

“Such candidates would not be verified during the examination proper . ”

Benjamin disclosed that the fraudsters were arrested variously in Oyo, Ogun and Maiduguri by officers and men of the NSCDC and brought to Abuja .

During their interrogations in Abuja , Benjamin said, the suspects gave startling revelations of how they conducted their operations .

“While being paraded in the presence of the Commandant -General of NSCDC, Abdullahi Gana Mohamadu , the fraudsters confessed to numerous registration infractions that JAMB couldn ’t imagine,” Benjamin said.

Imagine a suspect spending a whopping N20m on useless JAMB?

They just cook this story to cover-up their failings. APC has taught us so much that believing this kind of news is not possible.

JAMB should wake up to their calling and stop peddling fake news.

The spirit of Lai is in their midst.

What's happening sef.. Almost everything on the front page are crime news

We have talents in this country but people refuse to channel it positively. Smh.

Exaggerated fabrication

Another lie from the Jamb boss to justify his poor handling of the examination reg so far .why did they need to spend twenty million when they couldn't still alter the Original data in the Jamb servers .

9ja always looking for the negative part of any useful innovations for devilish and selfish act.

How will a sane person in 9ja spend such amount on Jamb? Na election?

so we have people smart enough to hack sites in Nigeria and they choose to use their brain wrongly......smart brain dumb people......btw where did they get 20 million from?
whistle blowers be at alert

Sack JAMB registrar now. Period

This guys must be super guider who raked millions through one HYIP like that:



Hacking gone wrong...

I heard the registrar is an Islamic scholar.. Buhari u again? . People who should be deployed to serve as mediators to bring back our girls from boko Haram enclave are being used to run Jamb. See d result? Ok na
