According to the police chief, other suspects still at large have been tracked to Ghana and other African countries even as they collaborate with the Interpol on the matter.
He said, “Samuel Kayode is a Physics and Mathematics teacher in two of the private schools in Ondo State. He links up with those who provide him with prepared answers of leaked 2018 examination questions.
