The Minister of Education, Dr Tunji Alausa, has directed the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), the West African Examinations Council (WAEC), the National Examinations Council (NECO), and the National Business and Technical Examinations Board (NABTEB) to blacklist Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres and candidates found guilty of examination malpractices.

The minister’s directive, said to be his response to the sharp practices that trailed the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), was contained in a letter he sent to JAMB and other examination bodies.

Alausa particularly said any school or CBT centre involved in examination malpractice or acting as a miracle centre be derecognized for a number of years that will be determined by the examination body.

This comes after JAMB, while releasing the 2025 UTME results, claimed to have recorded what it referred to as “advanced level digitized fraud” by candidates.
