An X User with the handle @iphieajike has called out an official of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) for intruding her daughter’s privacy.
Iphie in a series of posts condemned the breach of her daughter’s data protection right as the said JAMB official was alleged to have copied the phone number on her daughter’s profile with JAMB to stalk on the 15 year old.
“Took Jaya to the CBT center to register for JAMB today, I used my number to set up her profile and now one of the staff from the center is chatting me up thinking I’m Jaya. He’s going to FAFO!
“Lol. This guy is committing so many criminal offenses at once it’s crazy. He’s still chatting with me.
“He says he got her number from the system after she registered and left cos he couldn’t help himself.”
In another post, the examining body in its response on its official X page pledged to fish out the culprit and others involved in such mundane act while assuring safety of all applicants information on their database hencewith.
“Thank you for this information. The Board as a regulatory agency does not condone any form of unwholesome practice that would bring its integrity to disrepute.
“You can rest assured that your ward’s information on our database is safe and intact and that the culprit and his accomplices will be decisively brought to book.
“Kindly DM the details of the CBT Centre and the phone number in question for further investigation or visit any JAMB office nearby to lodge a formal complaint.”
