He said:
“If you scan the code, the candidate’s result will show. So I can say emphatically that the girl is parading a fake result. It is either she is being duped, or she is part of a syndicate manufacturing purported JAMB results.
“There are security features on our results, so I can emphasise that the girl is just trying to deceive the public. Her result is completely fake. Her claim that she printed the result from our site is a lie, totally incorrect. If we should reveal all that we know, people will be shocked. So if people are looking for shortcuts to achieve an end, that is what would happen.”
JAMB Registrar Professor Oloyede explains further
JAMB said the matter has nothing to do with its system, saying nobody hacked into its system and that the result did not emanate from its system, The Punch report added.
“The result she is holding is completely fake because we are able to track everything printed from our system.”
