The Joint Admissions and Matriculations Board has uncovered 3,000 fake graduates who never set foot within the four walls of a classroom.

The board also decried the issue of illegal admissions by some institutions which, it said, had remained a source of embarrassment to the country.

The Registrar, Prof Ishaq Oloyede, made this known in a report published in the board’s bulletin, which was obtained by our correspondent in Abuja.

According to the bulletin, Oloyede disclosed this during a meeting with the leadership of the Committee of Pro-Chancellors of State Universities.

“Some ‘graduates’ had never entered the four walls of a university owing to the endemic corruption in the system but the board had documented over 3,000 of such cases.

“Illegal admission of candidates into tertiary institutions in the country is an embarrassment and a disservice to the nation,” the bulletin read.

The issue of illegal admissions has over the years been at the forefront of JAMB’s priorities.

The House of Representatives Committee on Basic Education, in December 2023, ordered the JAMB to present a list of tertiary institutions that had conducted irregular and illegal admissions.

The examination body had earlier warned candidates to desist from accepting admissions offered by such institutions without full academic participation.

In the statement titled, “Cessation of illegal/irregular admission,” JAMB reiterated that all applications of admissions to first degree, national diploma, national innovation diploma and the Nigeria certificate in education into full-time, distance learning, part-time, outreach, sandwich, etc, must be processed only through JAMB.

NUC should have a degree certificate authentication website. I don't know why that is rocket science

Supreme Court has validated every degree certificate presented by an individual just like they did for Tinubu, so JAMB should go and seat down at the back seat for trying to taunt Tinubu...

JAMB should stop disturbing the peace. Someone who attended schools before they were even created is in Aso Rock and you are crying about fake graduates. *Hiss*

FaceTanke:
Oloyede for President

Which president, for what and for which country?

Where is the list of the identities of the individuals and of the universities who issued the fake certs?

And you hear many of them proudly say they graduated with first class. While many celebs, popular figures and men of God will advice youths to celebrate them and take them as role models.
