The Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, has revealed that the Board has set up undercover decoy centres—termed "rogue centres"—to trap candidates and parents who pay huge sums of money to register at so-called "special/miracle centres" with the intention of cheating during the 2021 UTME.
Automatic Disqualification for Candidates Patronizing 'Miracle Centres'
- Speaking on the sting operation, Prof. Oloyede stated: "To catch a rogue, you may need to pretend that you are one too."
- He disclosed that JAMB uncovered a major syndicate operating such miracle-centre schemes with a hub in Igarra, Edo State, where wealthy and educated parents were paying exorbitant sums far above the official ₦4,700 registration fee.
- Any candidate who registers through such miracle-centre syndicates stands automatically disqualified and faces prosecution alongside their sponsors.
