The Oyo State Universal Basic Education Board, on Thursday evening, nabbed Abosede Ojo, a middle-aged job seeker, who allegedly falsified her job portal result.
The Board Chairman, Nureni Adeniran, disclosed this in Ibadan, the state capital, on Friday.
He said the suspect had been handed over to the police for further investigation.
Adeniran said the suspect, who sat for the recruitment CBT examination scored 36 but decided to connive with an examination syndicate who allegedly produced a fake congratulatory message for her.
He explained that the suspect was apprehended during a verification exercise put in place by the Board, for qualified candidates.
The suspect confessed that she did not come for the interview, but liaised with her husband to get herself a congratulatory message.
“The police are on a trail of transactions between the suspect and the cyber-cafe where she got the printout.
The suspect has been handed over to the police, and the board would track and also apprehend others involved in the illicit act,” Adeniran vowed.
The chairman therefore advised others to stop such illicit acts, saying whoever was found wanting would face the full wrath of the law.
