Reps Committee: JAMB registrar not charged in employment racketeering investigation

Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, has not been charged, according to Yusuf Gagdi, Chairman of the House of Representatives Ad hoc Committee looking into employment racketeering in MDAs.

In addition, he stated that, in contrast to rumors, no Federal Government agency has been charged.

At the committee’s resumed hearing on Saturday in Abuja, he made this statement.

Gagdi claimed that all of the agencies that appeared before the committee engaged with it actively.

He said it was wrong to insinuate that the committee had indicted the JAMB registrar when it was still carrying out its assignment.

According to rumors, the committee indicted the JAMB registrar for hiring over 300 people without posting any job openings.

He stated that it could not be said that the committee had indicted any agency for any misconduct until it had completed its task and issued a report to the house.

“This committee has not indicted the registrar of JAMB and we have not indicted any institution. You can only say that after we submit our report.

“We had a very good interaction with him and nobody should preempt the decision of this committee to say that somebody is faulty.”
