The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) has said it detected that students have introduced a new way of examination malpractice by using handsets to decode examination questions.
A statement signed by ICPC's Resident Media Consultant, Mr. Folu Olamiti said that students would enter examination halls, mostly in many centers in Lagos with handsets stuffed with prepared answers and would download them to their answer sheets.
He said members of the ICPC's National Anti-Corruption Volunteers Corps (NAVC), in Lagos reported that the students committed the acts with connivance from teachers, invigilators and some school principals in most areas monitored.
According to the NAVC report, officials confiscated not less than 35 handsets of different grades from students used in cheat during examinations.
The ICPC said it observed that the highest level of ingenuity exhibited by the students was during mathematics examinations in WAEC, NECO and JAMB such that some stuffed answers to objective questions and the theoretical aspect.
