She also said that measures put in place by the board to curtail examination malpractice were still working to reduce the number of those involved in malpractice.
Isiugi-Abanihe urged state governors to set up technical and vocational education training centres to empower the youth.
Meanwhile, Professor Abdulganiyu Ambali the Vice Chancellor of University of Ilorin (UNILORIN), has explained why the university refused admission to 711 candidates.
There was outrage after the university collected money from many candidates and rejected them. The university VC says they uploaded excellent results, which the authorities later discovered during screening to be fake.
