Dr. Fabian Benjamin, the spokesperson for JAMB, disclosed this late Tuesday. He stated, “Out of these, 531 results were released recently”.
“Others found to be involved in any examination misconduct are still undergoing investigation as the Board would want to review all the footage of all CCTV cameras placed in all its accredited centers to ascertain the candidate’s culpability or otherwise.”
Dr. Benjamin emphasized that upon the conclusion of the ongoing investigation, the Board would publish its findings.
