NSCDC uncovers fake JAMB registration centre in Borno
The Nigeria Security and Civil
Defence Corps (NSCDC) says it
has uncovered a fake Joint
Admission Matriculation Board
(JAMB) centre in Maiduguri. The Commandant of the corps in
Borno, Mr Ibrahim Abdullahi, told
the News Agency of Nigeria
(NAN) on Sunday in Maiduguri that
operators of the fake centre were
defrauding applicants. Abdullahi explained that the centre
was uncovered on Thursday at the
Kawu Shopping Complex along
Lagos Street of the metropolis. He said that men of the command
also arrested one Abizo Precious
Idowu, a 31-year-old from Imo who
had collected N1,200 each to
register about 180 students under
the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). “Without any doubt, the command
had discovered that the Computer
Based Test Centre (CBT) is fake.
Even the server is for Abia state. “His accomplices are on the run
but the command is doing all it can
to track them. “We will make sure he refunded all
the money he collected from the
students while he will be made to
face the law. “We (NSCDC) therefore warned
JAMB applicants to be wary of
fraudsters disguising as JAMB
facilitators,” the commandant said.
