In a statement shared on her X account on Monday, she expressed gratitude to #JAMBHQ for their prompt response, revealing that the suspect is currently in custody.

She wrote, “The guy has been arrested. He and his accomplice, the guy who registered my child, are currently in custody!

“Thanks to #JAMBHQ for your swift response. I’m grateful!

Earlier on Saturday, Iphie had accused a staff member at a JAMB registration centre of using the phone number associated with her daughter’s JAMB profile to contact her.

“I don’t know what goes on in the heads of Nigerian men that makes them so stupid.”

“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!”

In response, JAMB assured her of a thorough investigation, reaffirming its commitment to data privacy and the safety of her daughter’s information.
