The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has released the
list of withdrawn certificates of candidates, who were believed to have engaged
in malpractices during its examinations held as far back as December 1992 and
1993.
The list of affected WAEC candidates was published in the weekly
bulletin of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, released on
Monday.
The nature of their malpractices of the affected candidates was
found to be impersonation.
In the JAMB bulletin, WAEC identified the candidates as,
“Ukaumunna C. December 1992 examination with the certificate number, NGSP
0233613; Chinna H. December 1993 with the certificate number, NGSP 0572427;
Koffi E. December 1993, with number NGSP 0455669; and Oham J. December 1994,
with the certificate number, NGSP 0177271.”
Others are “Mbara G. December 2001, with certificate WNR 2248072;
Ifo S. December 2001, with number NGWASSCP 1307367; Ugwu P. December 2005 with
certificate number, NGWASSCP 4534182; Anene J. December 2008, with number,
NGWASSCP 5505913; Ogbenna C. December 2011, with certificate number, NGWASSCP
06927486; and Nwangwu I. December 2014, with certificate number, NGWASSCP
8392056.”
JAMB noted that to avoid such impersonation during its Unified
Tertiary Matriculation Examination, it was partnering the National Identity
Management Commission to enforce candidates’ registration for the national
identity number.
The board said, “In view of the cases listed JAMB’s partnership
with NIMC is imperative. In order to have a seamless registration for the 2020
UTME, we have put machinery in place to test run the new registration regime
under the joint platform of JAMB and NIMC using the NIN.
“The Registrar, Prof Is-haq Oloyede, sequel to this, therefore,
directed members of staff in offices nationwide to participate in the trial
registration which started on Friday, November 29, and is to end Tuesday,
December 3. No fewer than 1,800 members of staff would be involved in the trial
registration designed to assess the workability of the new registration
regime.”
