The minister stated the Federal Government’s commitment to tackling widespread examination malpractices and enhancing the overall quality of the nation’s educational assessments.

He noted that tackling examination leakages requires a holistic approach as students are not the only culprits in examination malpractices.

Alausa said that parents also contributed to examination malpractices by encouraging their wards.

The minister stressed that teachers, head teachers as well as examination supervisors were also culpable in the rising examination malpractices in the country.

He also described the security situation in the country as unfortunate, saying Nigerians die needlessly due to banditry, terrorism, and kidnapping-for-ransom.

According to him, the level of corruption in Nigeria remained high, and also is the cost of governance which has led to an astronomical increase in public debt under the current administration of President Bola Tinubu of the APC.

Obi added that government officials mismanaged public funds in 2024 through incessant foreign travels.
