Benjamin further revealed that the use of the National Identification Number (NIN) was helpful in curbing malpractices during the exercise and that the CCTV cameras will still be reviewed and the results of anyone caught will be withdrawn.
“The Board notes with satisfaction that the utilisation of NIN (National Identification Number) has helped in curbing examination malpractices as the 2021 UTME has recorded the least incidence of irregularities since the inception of the CBT examinations in Nigeria.
“Nevertheless, the Board would still review all the CCTV footages and other technical gadgets for detection of possible examination misconducts.
“In addition, the Board would not hesitate to withdraw the results of any candidate subsequently found to have committed any form of examination misconduct”, the statement read.
