Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), has announced sanctions against six Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres for engaging in blank registration, a practice linked to examination malpractice.

Oloyede, however, did not disclose the locations or further details of the affected centres.

Speaking with journalists on Monday in Ilorin during a tour of some CBT centres in Kwara State, the registrar stated that the centres were caught conducting blank registrations shortly after JAMB’s online registration process began.

“We identified six CBT centres engaged in blank registration shortly after we began the online JAMB registration, so we sanctioned them and put them on suspension for this week.

“We called them into a meeting where they all apologised for what they did.

“Initially, we wanted to give them two weeks’ suspension but realised that the candidates would suffer more instead of the CBT centres.

“JAMB decided to identify the staff of the institutions that committed the offence and blacklist them.

“Those blacklisted will never, at any time, be involved in JAMB activities, either at CBT centres or when they become lecturers or vice-chancellors.

“This means that the six people who did the act are under punishment directly, because all their details have been known and put down in the blacklist,” he said.

Oloyede warned CBT centre staff to be mindful of their actions while handling JAMB-related activities.

“Once a student is involved in malpractice during an examination organised by any of the examination bodies, such a person is no longer in good standing with JAMB,” he said.

The registrar commended JAMB staff, CBT centres, field operatives, and security personnel for their dedication and excellence in managing the registration process.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that five CBT centres visited in Ilorin include Kwara College of Education, Al-Hikma University, Socrates College, the University of Ilorin, and Matrix CBT Centre.
