The long arm of the law has caught up with two students today for impersonation during the UTME session at Sunshine High School, NTC road Ibadan.
The suspected impersonators are Kamar Segun 18 years and Omotola Olayinka, 20 years old.
While speaking with journalists at the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC, Oyo State Command, the two suspects confessed to have planned the impersonation by gaining entrance into the centre but were caught by security man of the school.
Segun and Olayinka thereby pleaded for leniency and promised never to get involved in examination malpractice, impersonation, or any other negative act.
While parading the suspects, NSCDC Commandant in Oyo state, Alhaji Iskilu Akinsanya said the command had partnered with Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB to collectively fight against examination malpractice and any other related matters.
