The Registrar, Prof. Is-haq Oloyede, gave the warning at a virtual meeting with financial institutions, banks, e-PIN vending agents, among others.According to the Registrar, the Board would not hesitate to withdraw the accreditation of any service partners caught selling its application forms above agreed price.

He, therefore, urged financial institutions to diligently monitored their agents to avoid anything that might tarnish their hard-earned reputation.

Prof. Oloyede condemned the unwholesome activities of some agents of banks during the sale of the 2023 UTME application documents noting that it was on account of the respect for their parent institutions that the Board decided to pardon them.

” This year we would not leave any stone unturned to safeguard the integrity of our system as we place  more premium on integrity, hence cutting corners in any form would not be helpful for any organisation,” he said.
