Over 6,400 Candidates At Risk As JAMB Panel Submits UTME Malpractice Report

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) says its Special Committee on Examination Infractions will submit its final report today, September 8, 2025, amid ongoing controversies over widespread cheating in this year’s Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).

The committee, chaired by Dr. Jake Epelle, was set up in August to probe 6,458 withheld results linked to impersonation, AI-assisted cheating, and server hacking during the April–May exams.

If found guilty, candidates risk cancellation of results, disqualification from future exams, or prosecution. Education stakeholders say the report could reshape Nigeria’s exam system, as JAMB faces pressure to balance sanctions with fairness to innocent candidates.
