Parents found at UTME centers will be arrested – JAMB roar
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has directed all Computer-Based Test centre owners to arrest any parent, who is found near any of their facilities during the 2024 UTME exercise.
The body said all arrangements have been concluded for the conduct of the 2024 UTME, which will be held in over 700 CBT centres across the nation.
The directive was issued at the final briefing of the Computer-Based Test Centre owners, which was held virtually on Wednesday, 17th April 2024 a transcript of which was obtained by our correspondent on Thursday in Abuja.
The board said the directive became necessary following the intrusive disposition of some parents during the Board’s previous exercises.
Furthermore, Oloyede appealed to centre owners to consider the assignment as a national engagement and not as a purely profit venture. He urged them to expose the bad eggs among them.
The Registrar recalled that hitherto, CBT centres were allowed to register Direct Entry candidates but this practice was discontinued owing to the predilection of some of them to engage in fraudulent acts despite the many opportunities that the Board had created for them, especially by ensuring that other agencies patronise them. He, therefore, enjoined centre owners to eschew unwholesome acts or risk losing vital opportunities.

He expressed shock over multiple intelligence showing how the CBT centres have been making efforts to compromise the Board’s staff, especially with the offer of accommodation. He asked why they would want to do that when they constantly complain that what is paid them is not enough. He said the centres should not hesitate to expose any staff, who ask for such favours as the Board had sufficiently paid its staff for the exercise in line with government regulations adding that any centre which persists in doing so, might have something to hide.
The Registrar informed the participants that the Board had deployed state-of-the-art technologies to check all manners of infractions, collaborations and other unsavoury acts that are at variance with its code of operations.
