Oyeyemi reminded the students that examination malpractice is an offence, and anyone caught violating the law would be arrested.

“The police has the power under the laws to prosecute anybody caught in any form of malpractice during the JAMB examination,” he said.

The PPRO said that the police would be in various centres in the state to monitor and ensure that there was no breakdown of law and order.
