The registrar for the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) Ishaq Oloyede said that those who paid for question papers have failed
He said some of the candidates have paid huge sums of money to purchase these fake question papers.
“This morning, somebody sent me questions. They call it Orijo and he bought it for N200,000 and when I saw it, it was our questions in 1984 and he just put 2017 on it and started selling it and people are buying
“So, if people are corrupt, I won’t have any sympathy if they are duped by corrupt people like themselves,” Oloyede said.

He added that the syndicates only changed headings of past question papers and sell to the unsuspecting students.
“Somebody else called me and said he had all my questions. I asked him to send them to me and when I checked, I just laughed because none of that was in our questions. What people are just doing, they are making money because people are gullible.
“We appeal to people to do things according to the rules. No cutting of corners will work with JAMB and that is why many of the candidates who fell for such blackmail are disappointed.”
Oloyede said the results of the UTME conducted on Saturday has been released.

He also expressed satisfaction in the smooth conduct of the examination while decrying the poor performance of students.
“The result of UTME has come out and the performance is not too bad. But we are sure that this is the performance now rather than thinking you can get result one way or the other,” the registrar added.
