Corruption, nepotism, bribery, cultism, are some of the regular features in Nigeria's public/private institution in recent years. But things seem to be getting worse by the day.
The Joint Admissions and Matriculations Board, JAMB, released the result of the 2012 UTME on Friday with only 3 candidates, of the 1,503,931 registered candidates, scoring above 300. The results of 27,266 candidates across eight states were also withheld for various offences.
JAMB Registrar, Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, who made the disclosure at a briefing in Abuja, listed Abia, Benue, Cross River, Delta, Imo, Lagos, Nasarawa and Rivers as the affected states, due to malpractices.
“In 2012 UTME, we had some disturbing news of extortion of money from innocent candidates by greedy proprietors and supervisors all these persons will be brought to book,” he said, adding that the outcome of investigation would determine the next line of action.
