The Oyo State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB) has arrested Abosede Ojo, a middle-aged job seeker, for allegedly falsifying her job portal results. The arrest took place on Thursday evening during a verification exercise in Ibadan, the state capital.
The Board Chairman, Nureni Adeniran, disclosed the development on Friday, December 6, stating that the suspect has been handed over to the police for further investigation.
Adeniran explained that the suspect, who scored 36 in the recruitment Computer-Based Test (CBT), allegedly colluded with an examination syndicate to produce a fake congratulatory message.
“The suspect confessed that she did not come for the interview but liaised with her husband to get herself a congratulatory message,” he said.
He further revealed that the police are investigating transactions between the suspect and the cyber-café where the fraudulent printout was obtained.
“The suspect has been handed over to the police, and the board would track and also apprehend others involved in the illicit act,” Adeniran stated.
The chairman warned others against engaging in such fraudulent activities, emphasizing that anyone found guilty would face the full wrath of the law.
