Uzodinma seeks speedy investigation of suspected Jamb website hackers
The Imo State Governor and Chairman of the South East Governors’ Forum, Hope Uzodimma, has called on the Nigeria Police Force and the Department of State Service, to intensify on investigation of suspected hackers of the Joint Administration and Monitoring Board’s website.
He made the call in a statement on Saturday while commending the security operatives for the arrest of the suspects.
Reacting to the arrest in a statement issued on his behalf by the state Commissioner for Information, Public Orientation and Strategy, Hon Declan Emelumba, Uzodimma described the arrest as timely.
According to him, the arrest was not only necessary to establish the root cause of the problem, but also to douse the tension that arose in the nation because of the crisis.
Uzodimma said both agencies must move quickly with the investigation to unravel those behind the hacking of the JAMB website.
He was of the view that a quick investigation and arraignment of the suspects in court would act as a deterrent to would-be criminals.
He said the JAMB imbroglio was a national embarrassment that should be dealt with immediately.
Uzodimma, however, commended the JAMB registrar, Prof Ishaq Oloyede, for his sincerity and commitment in ensuring that the sanctity of the examination body was preserved.
