BREAKING NEWS!!! JAMB RESTORED TO ORDER, JAMB HAS BEEN ORDERED BY COURT TO CONDUCT PUME THE WAY IT HAS BEEN
aspiring undergraduates that were affected in
the new jamb eligibility regulation.
Incase you don’t know the Full News, You
can Read and Understand it better HERE
I can assure you all that the matter has
been resolved as we have finally gotten an
order from the Federal High court,
compelling Unilag and Jamb to include any
students that scored 200marks &above.
Other universities have also effected the
change.
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation
Board, JAMB, has repealed its earlier
decision to redistribute candidates that sat
for this year’s exams to institutions they
(candidates) did not initially choose while
filling their forms. JAMB has come under
criticisms lately since it announced the
plan. Some days ago, some candidates who
chose the University of Lagos, UNILAG,
and their parents staged a peaceful protest
in Lagos both at Unilag and the Federal
High Court.
Professor Dibu Ojerinde, JAMB Registrar,
had explained that the redistribution was
to help cushion the effect of spill overs
from top class institutions, which insist on
not reducing their cut off marks, including
UNILAG. JAMB had announced cut off
marks of 180 for universities in the
country, while 150 for polytechnics and
colleges of education. But the body has
now rescinded its decision and has asked
candidates to proceed to their first choice
of institution for their post-UME exams
following the court’s verdict.
Though I wasn’t in Lagos to attend the
hearing but my reliable source says the
judge delivered his judgement at exactly
12.20pm today & asked both Jamb & Unilag
to revert its sudden policy wit immediate
effect. A copy of d judgement has also been
released.
More news on this will be updated. Big
shoutout to everyone that lent a voice and
those that participated in the protes.
