JUST IN: Senate suspends JAMB 3-year validity plan

JUST IN: Senate suspends JAMB 3-year validity plan

The Senate on Wednesday said it has suspended the amendment of the Act establishing the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) in order to allow for adequate consultation with stakeholders.
The red chamber had approved the extension of the validity of the results of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations (UTME) being conducted by JAMB to three years.
The decision, the senate had said, was granted to reduce the financial burden of the examination on parents, students and JAMB.
Chairman, Senate Committee on Education (Basic and Secondary), Senator Aliyu Wamakko, confirmed the suspension to reporters during an oversight visit to the headquarters of JAMB in Abuja.
Wamakko, who was represented by Senator Ajayi Boroffice, stated that the senate would not make any laws that would impede on the progress of any institution.
He said: “Your JAMB result is only valid for one year and we thought it will be better for it to be valid at least for three years. It will reduce the burden on the parents, on the students themselves even on the institution that is conducting the test. I think it is what is good for all of us and I don’t think the public will reject it.
“As I said we don’t make laws for an individual or for the senate. We make law for the country in the interest of all of us. A bill must not necessarily be at the convenience of a particular organization, having said that, since we don’t want to make a law that will impede the progress of any institution we are bound to listen to what they are saying. We are bound to listen to them.”
Responding, JAMB Registrar, Is-haq Oloyede, said he was happy the senate listened to its appeal to suspend the amendment of its Act.

Breaking News: No MORE Uniform Cut-Off Mark Say Jamb

13:16:00 0
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has hinted that it may cancel the use of uniform cut-off points for admitting candidates that took the Universities Tertiary Matriculation Examination.
The issue of cut-off marks as currently being used for admission, it said, should be subjected to national debate by stakeholders.
The Spokesperson of JAMB, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, gave the indication in a statement he issued on behalf of its Registrar/Chief Executive, Prof Is-haq Oloyede, on Sunday evening in Abuja.
He said a situation where universities, polytechnics and colleges of education were subjected to the same cut-off marks was no longer tenable because it prevented the institutions from admitting candidates of their choice.
Tertiary institutions, he sated, should be allowed to determine the kind of candidates they want to admit.
He added that there was an urgent need to reconsider the current cut-off point of 180 for admission in order to strengthen access to education, particularly for the less-privileged.
Benjamin said, “The uniformity of cut-off marks doesn’t make any sense when colleges (of education) and polytechnics admit for national certificate of education and diplomas, while universities admit for degrees.
Yet, we subject them to the same cut-off marks, thereby starving these tiers of institutions from admitting candidates who, if not engaged, may likely become easy prey to social vices.
“This means that if a University wants 250 as minimum cut-off marks, why not? And if another wants less so be it. If a Polytechnic like YABATECH (Yaba College of Technology) wants 250 as cut-off marks, let them admit and if Gboko Polytechnic in Benue State where I come from wants less than 200, let them admit.
“Institutions should be known for their individual quality and not collective standards. This will foster positive competition for the overall good of our tertiary institutions. It is critical for all notable stakeholders to rethink the issue of cut-off marks.
“I am calling for a national debate on the propriety of cut off marks; institutions should be allowed to determine the kind of candidates they want.”
JAMB also expressed worry over the class opportunities as it affects the distribution of admission resources.
The organisation said, “The rich have multiple opportunities which include going abroad for studies while the poor only have the opportunity of struggling for the scarce spaces here.
“They come back and they are integrated while the poor can’t afford it and are forever denied the opportunity of education. Let institutions admit what they want according to their needs.”
JAMB urged Nigerians to look at the decision critically for it to take action that would be for the good of the education sector.

The board’s Head, Media and Information, Dr Fabian Benjamin, made the disclosure in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Friday in Lagos.
According to him, the board will ensure that Nigerian children are not unjustly denied admission in any institution of their choice.
He said that the names of candidates that had satisfactorily met the admission rules and regulations of the institutions and that of the Federal Government would be uploaded soon.
“We have just concluded a five-day Technical Committee meeting on Admission that started on Aug. 22 at the Bayero University Kano.
“A lot was deliberated upon and at the end everything came out successful.
“We have ensured that the admissions are done in line with the set rules and regulations as provided by the Federal Government and the various institutions.
“We are aware that the function of admission of candidates is solely the job of the Senates of institutions and what we do as a board is to see the guidelines used in admitting the candidates and ensure ratification.
“We are passionate about ensuring that no candidate that meets any of the admission rules and guidelines as provided by both the institution and government is denied admission for whatever reason,’’ he said.
The Registrar of the board, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, had at the opening of the meeting said that admissions would be carried out based on guidelines approved for each institution by their respective proprietors.
He also said that preference expressed for the institutions and courses by the candidates would also be followed.
Oloyede assured that the admission of candidates into the respective first choice institutions would be smooth.

JUST IN: New JAMB Registrar says there will be no written test for 2016 Admission

15:08:00 0
The registrar, Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Prof. Is-Haq O. Oloyede has said that admission into the Federal tertiary institutions in the country must comply with the national policy.
Speaking yesterday, August 22 in Kano, Oloyede warned that no candidate must emanate from any other source (JAMB inclusive), outside the list prepared and recommended by the institutions.
Oloyede said this during the First Technical Committee on admission to First Choice Institutions held at the Bayero University, Kano (BUK).
He said that the Senate/ Academic of each institution has the prerogative of admitting candidates, “but this must be in adherence to the national policy.
He added that, “for the first time, there won’t be written post  Universal Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) test  for candidates, seeking admission into Nigerian Universities this year.”
However, he insisted that all other processes should and would be as they have always been.
According to Oloyede, the Senate or Academic Board of each institution reserves the prerogative of admitting candidates of their respective institutions, subject of course only to national policies.
Among others, the policies include, guidelines stipulated by the proprietors of the institution on 60/40 (Science/Art) ratio for conventional Universities, 80/20 (Science/Arts) ratio for non-conventional Universities and use of 2016 JAMB/UTME results print out for all candidates, who scored 180 and above.

Detials On How Former JAMB Boss Was Sack :Prof. Dibu Ojerinde reveals

21:11:00 0
The immediate past Registrar of the Joint Admission And Matriculation Board (JAMB), Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, has stated that he left the Board better than he met it withing the nine years he was in charge.
He disclosed this during a dinner organised to honour him in Abuja.
According to him, his achievements could only be built upon by the new JAMB registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede.
He urged the management of the board to continue to work towards keeping the philosophy on which JAMB was established.
“I feel good that I am leaving JAMB better than we all met it that time. I am sure the person who has come to takeover is going to be as good if not better than I am.
“I feel good that I am leaving JAMB better than we all met it that time. I am sure the person who has come to takeover is going to be as good if not better than I am.
“I have done everything I wanted to do. There is no other thing I want to do and that is why God says it is time for me to leave. That is it. No more.” He said
He dispelled the rumours that he was sacked due to the 2016 admission list that was later retrieved; stating that he was not the only one that was sacked so it does not make sense for anyone to say he was sacked because of that.
On the issue of reverting to Paper and Pencil Test, Ojerinde said that it would be tantamount to taking one step forward and two steps backwards.
“May God forbid going backwards. We will move forward. In fact they should go multimedia and I think the present person will do it. He stated

ASUU Attacks JAMB Over New Admission Screening Model

11:19:00 1
ASUU Attacks JAMB Over New Admission Screening Model
The New Admission Screening Model is now a source of major problems. The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), University of Ibadan chapter, has faulted the guidelines released by the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) for admission of candidates into Nigerian tertiary institutions stating that JAMB acted beyond its powers.
According to the union, the Senate of Nigerian Universities has the mandate to regulate admission modalities as each university has standards which are not subjected to the whims and caprices of any government appointee.
Speaking, the Chairman of the union, Dr. Deji Omole, said both the Minister of Education, Mallam Adamu Adamu, and JAMB Registrar, Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, first got it wrong by going against the administrative charges collected by institutions for post-UTME and later reversed their stand in their guidelines which he described as illegal and designed to favour children of the rich against the poor.
He mentioned that the point-based scoring system in the guidelines is not new as it has been used in UI 5 years ago and abandoned.
He equally stated that JAMB is only trying to cover up their inadequacies as its credibility is yearly queried. He pointed out that last year candidates were pushed to private universities against their will and this year JAMB awarded 40 marks to some candidates without justification.
He further mentioned that with the stipulation on the current guidelines many candidates will be disadvantaged and JAMB would have succeeded in entrenching corruption and further kill tertiary education in the country.
