Examination malpractice is often defined as any deliberate act of wrong doing, contrary to the rules of examinations designed to give a candidate an undue advantage. Examination malpractice in Nigeria is as old as the country itself. It has grave consequences on individuals, institutions, communities and the country at large. This one ill that has bedeviled the nation should be confronted head-on and curbed. Who are the perpetrators? Who is to blame? BETTY AMUKPO asks, some children respond thus:

‘Students are highly to be blamed’

Student are the set of people that promote examination malpractice most. Why will you engage yourself in such act? Because you don’t want to read; you want to pass by all means. You are cheating yourself, parents and society. Stop the negative act of examination malpractice. Students are highly to be blamed.

‘The parents are to be blamed’

The parents are to be blamed for examination malpractices because most of them are the ones who introduced their children to examination malpractices by bribing the examination officials for their children to pass. However, the Bible says “Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old, he will not depart from it (Proverbs 22:6).
