According to the statement, the Registrar of the examination
body, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, has expressed disappointment with the development and
calls on innocent Nigerians not to fall prey. “The public is hereby notified
that JAMB has not commenced the sales of its application documents as
advertised by some unknown and desperate persons.
“They are to disregard any website or individuals claiming
to be in possession of these documents and offering same for sales. “We are
putting finishing touches to innovation and changes to ease the challenges
associated with the procedure of application for the 2017 all Computer-Based
Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
“We are looking forward to
announcing the commencement of the sales of these documents very soon,’’ the
statement quoted the registrar as saying. The statement advised the public to
feel free to contact the board for clarification on its activities through its
website or contact numbers whenever they were in doubt. It noted that Oleyede
had announced his willingness to open the board’s door to the public to make
valuable contributions and also report any act against the board’s pedigree by
either the staff or the board’s development partners.
“We must all be
interested in what happens in JAMB, as it is too important to be ignored. “Help
us to watch over where our eyes cannot get to, hear where our ears fail and be
our police where our presence is insufficient,’’ the statement said.
Vanguard gathered that the Registrar had restated the board’s determination to ensure that nobody
was spared in sustaining and advancing the credibility of the board. Meanwhile,
the board has hailed the judgment of the National Industrial Court sustaining
the sack of one of its former staff, one Cletus Uloko in 2015. According to the
statement, Uloko’s services were terminated following acts of misconduct
contrary to civil service rule.
