Oloyede said, “Six CBT individuals engaged by JAMB from various institutions in the country have been blacklisted for life from participating in jamb-conducted examinations.

“The people were caught in alleged examination malpractice, adding that we have their particulars and we will be monitoring them wherever they go even if they become professors and are to be appointed as Vice Chancellors.

“One senior university official is being prosecuted for admission-related crime, adding that four others are under investigation and have been placed on the watch list by JAMB.”

The JAMB registrar said that, earlier in the registration exercise, 10 institutions were caught registering candidates in the night and have been warned from engaging in such acts adding that CBT centres should not engage in keeping the Template of candidates.

The Registrar disclosed that the Examination body has registered a total number of 420,674 candidates for the 2025/2026 JAMB examinations so far as of Monday afternoon.

Oloyede also said no fewer than 32,435 candidates registered for the examinations on Monday alone which was the 5th day that the UTME registration began.

He said 124,632 candidates have entered for the mock JAMB exams while 331 candidates registered for trial testing adding that “this category of candidates are not applying for admission in any Nigerian Universities in the 2025/2026 session.

Oloyede said that JAMB has a target of two million candidates for this year’s UTME Examination.

The JAMB registrar, who put the number of underaged registrants (candidates who would be less than 16 years old by October) at 4,997 as of Monday afternoon, lambasted those he described as selfish parents who crave to make their children’s educational pursuit as their victory medal.

“You can see how we’re deceiving ourselves in this country. Before the maximum figure would be about 300. In a situation when we’ve just started in five days and we have a total number of 4996 underaged registrants. By the end of today, there will be more than 5000.

“Many of these parents have misdirected their children. They want to use their children’s early education to decorate their CVs”, he said.

Answering questions on reasons for allowing underaged candidates in the exams, the jamb registrar said that all underaged candidates are made to sign an indemnity form or undertaking to meet up with academic ability or be sanctioned for such failure to meet up with claimed exceptional intelligence.

Some of the CBT centres visited were Kwara State College of Education, Al-Hikmah University, Socrates College, Matrix CBT centre at Pipeline Road, Tanke, Ilorin and the University of Ilorin CBT centre.

Oloyede after his visits to CBT centres to monitor the registration for the 2025/2026 JAMB registration said that the exercise was going excellently well in all centres.

“Going around, I’m very proud of those on the fields, CBT centres, my staff and everyone involved. I think it’s better by far. People know we’ll not take anything less than standard and they’ve done very well. We also thank security agencies. They’ve assisted us so well,” he said
