Of what use is this so-called Jamb examintions by the way, when after it the universities and institutions rip parents off through the ever obnoxious and senseless post jamb exams. It is an absurdity that people would pass Jamb and even the so-called post jamb only to be replaced with people who never passed any of those, their qualification being only that their parents happened to bribe their ways through. Hardly can any body get admission into any university in Nigeria today without paying money to a nincompoop at the university. Can someone not do something about this draconian system of having to take a post Jamb exam after having passed the substantive Jamb exam? This system is not only impoverishing the already finished people of Nigeria, but is also brooking mediocrity and exacerbating corruption.

Where are the senators and House of Representative members? Is it because their children and wards are not experiencing such things. I read sometime ago that Senator Mrs Chris Anyanwu championed a course to abolish this retrogressive system, but all that was rebuffed due to the unjustifiable outcry of the sleazy university professors and lecturers, who claimed they were trying to save nigeria's education with it since Jamb has purportedly become corrupt. But this is playing the ostrich, for what they have succeeded in doing is to transfer corruption from Jamb to universities and institutions of higher learning, which are a wider spectrum. And the corruption is spreading unabated like wild fire. It has become a common knowledge that a student who fails to pay the amount demanded by any lecturer for a hand-out has automatically failed that paper, no matter how well the student performed at the exam. Worse hit are the girls who are coerced to face the trauma of having to sleep with some of these lectures, when they can not pay for the hand-out or as a price to be able to get admission which more often than not even turn out to be a ruse.
Can the President, the senate, house of reps members, minister of Education, Governors, NLC, Civil rights and liberty organizations, NBA, Student Unions of higher institutions, the Press, Emirs, Obas, Obis and Ezes please rise up against this canker worm called post UTME. The ordinary people of Nigeria are languishing hopelessly and Nigeria has become a laughing stock in Africa and here overseas.
