In a recent statement, Professor Is-haq Oloyede, the Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), emphasized that parents are primarily responsible for the rising cases of examination malpractice in Nigeria. He noted that many parents engage in unethical practices to secure favorable outcomes for their children, undermining the integrity of the education system. Oloyede called for a collective effort from all stakeholders, including parents, educators, and government officials, to combat this issue. He highlighted the need for stricter regulations and awareness campaigns to educate parents about the consequences of their actions. The JAMB Registrar's remarks come amid increasing concerns over the credibility of academic qualifications in the country. Oloyede's comments aim to shift the focus of accountability from students to the adults who influence their decisions. The fight against exam malpractice is crucial for restoring trust in Nigeria's educational framework.
