This is a sad situation, does it mean that nobody has been spared ? The morally corrupt thrive at all levels of the hierarchy and judging from the picture, the Nigerian millennium child has used all tools available to highlight this fact.
Prof. Dibu Ojerinde also said a total of 52 centers, with Rivers State having the highest number of 24, have had their results withheld on suspicion of examination malpractices.
In Febuary this year,Dibu Ojerinde declared that as a means of deterrence the board will invoke the punishment of a seven year jail sentence for any student caught for examination malpractice
Decree 20 of 1984 stipulated that anyone convicted for examination mal-practice should serve a 21-year jail term. However, the Examination Malpractice Act 33 of 1999 has replaced the decree with a law which stipulates that any offender is liable to a fine of between N50, 000 and N100, 000 and a three-four-year jail term with or without option of fine.
