Abstract: In Nigeria, examination malpractice has become inimical to educational development. It is a social evil that can ruin the society and debar its growth and development. It has attained such a proportion that the actualisation of the goals of education in Nigeria is almost becoming impossible. New methods are being devised by its perpetrators, worsening the situation and frustrating the attempt to combat the syndrome. Examination malpractice involves almost all stakeholders in education in Nigeria. This paper aimed at investigating the extent of the deontological approach in understanding and combating examination malpractice in Nigeria.
