The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has recommended disciplinary measures against 11 Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres and multiple candidates over biometric fraud during the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) registration.
JAMB Registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, announced the proposed sanctions during a stakeholders’ meeting in Abuja on Tuesday, stating that the penalties are subject to approval by the Minister of Education, Dr. Maruf Alausa.
According to Oloyede, any registrant linked to over 50 biometric infractions will face a three-year ban from all JAMB, WAEC, NECO, and NABTEB activities. Afterward, cases may be reviewed for possible reinstatement if remorse is shown.
