Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq in a statement by his spokesman Rafiu Ajakaye in Ilorin Kwara State capital, expressed sadness over the development, describing it "as unfortunate."

He further threatened heavy sanctions against school heads or officials caught aiding and abetting examination malpractices in the state.

According to him, the examinations held between April 8 and May 31,2019, affected 122 public secondary schools and 43 private schools, adding that "the development is the worst in the history of the state."
