The JAMB Registrar, Is-haq Oloyede, made these allegations during an admission policy meeting in Abuja on Thursday, July 18. 

The meeting, organised by JAMB, serves as a crucial platform for key stakeholders who play a vital role in the admission processes into tertiary institutions across the country, including vice-chancellors, registrars, rectors, and other principal officers from universities, polytechnics, colleges of education, and monotechnics.
