Ndanusa who told journalists at the Taraba corps’ headquarters said while the government-approved price for JAMB registration was N4,00, the two suspects were charging students N4,200.
He posited that the NSCDC would not sit back to allow fraudulent persons to defraud the unsuspecting members of the public.
