We also collaborated with other security services to spread our net across the country to see what is happening and lo and behold more than 47 proprietors of these and some of their lecturers and teachers, and people conniving with them in perpetrating malpractices were arrested all over the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cArising from that, the Honourable Minister of Education has graciously approved the establishment of A-Level data bank. So for example, in a particular university, 90 percent of those who presented their A level results for admission were found to be fake,\u201d the JAMB boss said.<\/p>\n<p>According to Oloyede, the data bank will ensure all A-Level results are registered under one platform to bring about the standardisation and integrity of the certificates.<\/p>\n<p>In a presentation, Oloyede also revealed that from 2017 to 2022, a total of N27.2 billion was remitted to the Federal Government\u2019s coffers by the Board while N9.7 billion was used for capital projects in the same period.<\/p>\n<p>He gave the breakdown of the remittances as 2017-N7.8 billion, 2018-N5.2 billion, 2019-3.76 billion, 2020 \u2013 N4 billion, 2021 \u2013 N3.5 billion and 2022 \u2013 N3 billion.<\/p>\n<p>The workshop, which attracted JAMB\u2019s Public Relations staff from across the country as well as several resource persons, is expected to end on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
