The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, says it has received complaints from some parents and students that certain institutions are collecting money ranging from N10,000 to N80,000 from candidates purportedly for the processing of late or irregular admissions.
A statement by JAMB Head of media, Febian Benjamin says, it unequivocally dissociates from the exploitative act as it has not requested any institution to collect any such fees on its behalf.
JAMB adds that it does not also demand or accept any fee from any of the institutions.
