Emphasis on academic qualifications fuelling exam malpractice - JAMB

He also blamed fraudulent school practices, especially during external examinations, on too much emphasis on paper qualifications.

“This is because of the threats posed not only to the educational system but also to national development. Some of the reasons for the widespread report of academic cheating might not be unconnected with the undue emphasis placed on paper qualifications and the desperation for professional courses such as Medicine, Law, Accountancy etc.,” he said.

Mr Oloyede stated this on Wednesday in Ado-Ekiti while delivering the ’10th Annual Lecture of the Forum of Heads of Federal Government Establishments In Nigeria’ . The topic of his lecture was ‘Value Reorientation For Effective Service Delivery: JAMB Perspectives’. Mr Oloyede said some digital-based reforms were tailored toward sustaining JAMB’s zero tolerance for impersonation, malpractices and other forms of illegality and irregularities.
