OVER the years, there has been a consistent increase in the number of students seeking tertiary education in Nigeria. Over 1.5 million young people in Nigeria sit for the West African Secondary School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) and slightly above the number sit for the Joint Admissions Matriculation Board Examination (JAMB).

In 2019, the year of this investigation, exactly 1,590,173 students registered for the West African examination and 1.8 million sat for the JAMB. Out of this number, just a little over 600,000 got admission into the different tertiary institutions available in the country.

The number of admission seekers far outnumber the available slots in the tertiary institutions. This has created a huge competition for limited spaces hence the desperate moves by students, parents and teachers who have resorted to sharp practices at every level to beat the system, thereby edging out honest students with their fraudulently acquired superlative results.

Examination malpractice has flourished in Nigeria for a long time and many people have created an illegal business around their ability to outsmart the system, as revealed in this investigation.

After documenting stories on how results are easily bought at Bachel Academy, Damilola BANJO and Habib OLADAPO investigate some of the claims.

In this Investigation, Banjo, under the pseudonym of Grace Adebiga enrolled at Bachel Academy in Egbeda area of Lagos State, for both WASSCE and JAMB examination.

Grace Adebiga is a 25-year-old rice seller, who wanted to get tertiary education. She would need to write WASSCE and JAMB in order to achieve her goal of gaining a tertiary education. For six months, Grace went through the Bachel Academy as an admission seeker who was too busy to study but willing to pay for the needed grades. She registered for the 2019 WASSCE and JAMB in the school where she documented evidence of extortion, bribery and examination fraud.

Not all that glitter is genuine

Bachel College, and its other affiliates, like the Bachel Academy, are popular for churning out good WASSCE results and well above 200 JAMB scores. On the school’s Facebook page, a former student shared how she made her O’level result at Bacheal Academy after five failed attempts elsewhere.

“Mr bachel is the only solution for all the people in the nation that see education as the problem of our nation like me now have loss hope about all this education stuff have been doing waec gce neco for almost good five years but i thank god today because have make my result math b3 phys b3 chem b3 eng c5 biology c6 bachel is too much and one thing is that some people didn’t know that we used our money to buy our self good things love bachel once again (sic),” the student, Humble Sinner, praised the school.

This would have been commendable if the results were achieved through hard work but the cue to how students of Bachel make outstanding grades is obvious in the disjointed and grammatical blunder in the testimonial of Humble Sinner. The lack of punctuation and capitalization would have earned Sinner a grade way below C6 but at Bachel even a ‘sinner’ can be made a saint.

Bachel is one of the notable private schools in Lagos by all standards. It has state-of-the art secondary schools in Ayobo, Ogba and Egbeda areas of Lagos State. The school at Ayobo is built on a large expanse of land with a lush green field for recreation. The level of examination fraud perpetrated in all the branches of Bachel schools is antithetical to the quiet exterior at the Ayobo branch.

With well over 2,000 students in its three branches, including the tutorial centre, Bachel has the capacity and infrastructure to be in the business of education, but lacks integrity to inspire value of hard work in its students.

Founded on September 15, 2006, Bachel positioned itself as the epitome of quality education in Nigeria, providing “unique, outstanding and remarkable academic service to Nigerians and foreigners of different social-status in its four standard schools at Ogba, Ayobo and Ikotun, with several academy centers in Lagos and Ogun metropolis,”

“We simply provide technical and professional standards required to bring out the best, useful and hidden potentials in students through a team of dynamic management and passionate professionals who frown at failure,” it claimed on its official website.

However, behind the walls, there is an organised system of examination fraud. The sterling grades being flaunted by Sinner, and many of its students, are the result of organised exam fraud. Everyone in the school, including WAEC officials, play a part in this malpractice. The students, and the gatemen, are not left out; they all are fully involved.

Hmmmm...It's best to leave this matter for the body involved to do their thorough investigation.

The fear of every intending land owner is to buy wrongly. And buying wrongly could only mean buying a land that is under committed acquisition. Even if the said property does have a registered survey it sure does not mean it's safe for purchase as a private buyer. I learnt of recent of a property claiming to have registered survey as title but when the client took the coordinates down to Alausa to verify it's safety for purchase she found out that the said property is still under committed acquisition, simply put, it is a government land. So, It is very important to confirm some of these Title documents so as to avoid untold regrets. Howbeit, if every other title can still fall under committed acquition definitely not a land with C of O title except if the C of O is not genuine. That's why corporate organisations always go for properties with C of O title whenever they intend to acquire properties.
Having said that much, the intention of this article is to share with you one of the cheapest property with C of O title because it's rare to find a property as cheap as this with ultimate title in a very viable, promising and lucrative environment. Let's dive into it quickly.
BerryCourt, Sagamu is owned by Pragmatic Homes. It is currently positioned strategically in a location where you have renowned industries and business hubs like Nestle Nig plc, Interfact Beverage plc, New Makun City, Flower Gate etc. This property is currently selling for 650k and 850k on outright purchase for 450sqm and 600sqm respectively. There is also an installment payment plan of 12 months with initial deposit of 55k and 75k respectively for each square meters. There are other statutory fees to a tune of 700k that covers Documentation, Development and Survey. And much to its uniqueness is that it is a buy and build estate. So, I feel this is one the most convenient and safe estate to invest in or buy outrightly. If you needed more information and inspection schedule on this particular property you can reach me on Whatsapp or Call via 07033753922.
Buy safe, Buy cheap, Buy comfort and covenience. I wish you all the best.

There are several pointers to check out when investing your money in a real estate scheme being handled by a certain developer but to not stray from my point I will shoot right away at it.
A wise real estate investor do not trust his/her money with a developer because the property they manage is cheap. And talking about CHEAP!! What is cheap is really all about property value as against the price hence, 250k can be expensive and 20m can be cheap. Also, clients affordability too determines what is cheap and expensive from their own point of view. I just shared these two different angles about the word CHEAP as it relates to properties so as to bring more understanding to it. However, that's not where I am going.
A wise and intelligent real estate investor look beyond the price. And having considered the location assesses, most importantly, the capacity of the developer to deliver as promised.
This is very important to an investor because that is the ultimate goal. Investors trust developers with billions of naira because they've been able to ascertain their ability to deliver as promised.
There are so many real estate companies especially here in Lagos who has failed to deliver to their clients that one key factor that made their clients trust them with their hard earned money. In some instances, I have heard stories of how some will even fail to allocate to their clients the plot or plots paid for. It is so sad because this unprofessional disposition actually pose a threat to the image and credibility of those that truly delivers. As a Realtor, I pray we get out of this mess someday because it sure does make the job harder for us.
Howbeit, there are ways to avoid this sort of investment red flags. Look at past project/projects or state of current project of that particular developer. Assess it success rate thus far. Check out people's review on their estate scheme. If all you see and find out gives you a positive vibe after your thorough investigation you can gladly trust your money with them.
There are so many estates in existence that their developers have made investors happy thus far. One of those I can mention for free here is AMEN ESTATE developed by Redbricks Homes. They do have so many happy clients and happy consultants/marketer like myself too. They are currently replicating same satisfaction served their clients in the first Amen Estate in their AMEN ESTATE phase 2 scheme. Click the YouTube link to have a glimpse of their current project.
