JAMB exam : Police nab 2 teachers, 4 students as ‘Miracle Centre’ deal backfires
Detectives attached to Airport Police Division in Benin City, Edo State, have arrested two male teachers, four students, others in connection with Joint Admissions Matriculation Board (JAMB) examination malpractice.
It was gathered that two of the suspects ( teachers) at Salvation International Preparatory School located in Benin City, were arrested on the order of the President of the School, Evangelist ( Mrs) Olaide Toyinbo following their alleged involvement in the examination racketeering.
They were said to have influenced the enrollment of over 20 students in a “miracle centre” for JAMB examination after the duo allegedly collected huge sums of money running into thousands of naira from the students with the assurance that they will pass their examination with ease.
But this was not to be after the examination results were released with the students’ abysmal failures thereby raising dust of the unexpected from the victims who demanded refund of their money.

Sources said that the suspects have been involved in examination malpractices long before the last straw that broke the camel’s back especially with JAMB, WAEC and NECO exams against the policies of the school that had been in existence over 25 years ago.
Confirming the arrest of the suspects, the Police Public Relations Officer at the Edo State Police Command, SP Chidi Nwanbuzor, said that the suspects confessed to the crime, adding that they will be charged to court on completion of investigation as they were detained and subsequently granted bail for further investigation.
Speaking to Journalists, the President of the School, Evangelist Mrs Olaide Toyinbo said:” I traveled to America when my son’s wife delivered of a baby when the Director of the School, Pastor Femi Toyinbo called me..I raced to Nigeria and ordered the arrest of the teachers when I called in the Police.
” The Police arrested some the students because I don’t do malpractices in my school and outside .The teachers are criminals and they will suffer for their evil activities”.
