``While observing activities at the Model Secondary School , Maitama centre, I noticed that some students were given the wrong combination of question papers.

``This could lead to the candidates ’ failure, as a result of no fault of theirs, but from irregularities that had occurred.
``There is the need for JAMB authorities to create copies of each subject to be given to students who experiencesuch irregularities.”
Ojo commended JAMB for its activities as cases of examination malpractice had been curtailed because students were no longer allowed to take anything to the examination venues.
Meanwhile, the Joint Administration and Matriculation Board ( JAMB ) Examination conducted in the FCT was devoid of irregularities while candidates reported promptly, a News Agency of Nigeria (NAN)check has showed.

NAN reports that as at 6.30 am when the examinations were expected to commence at various centres, candidates were seen waiting for invigilators inan orderly manner.
However, a NAN correspondent who visited some examinationvenues, observed that the atmosphere was calm and there were reports of examination malpractice.
