FrancisTony:That will be so disorganised cos that's the reason they give exam date.There is an extra day reserved,14th august,in case the issue is resolved.Unilag's putme is always 3 days but this year's is 2 days,so there's still little hope. |
Re: Unilag 2015/2016 Admission by Nobody: 9:15am On Jul 28, 2015 |
labodinho:A day for over 21,000 applicants? because 30,000 scored 200+ and 9,000 is already using 12th and 13th. 15th which is saturday might be added. It's well. |
Re: Unilag 2015/2016 Admission by labodinho: 9:53am On Jul 28, 2015 |
FrancisTony:No,they might not make the cut off 200 by then.Let's wait for latest news anyways. |

JAMB MUST STOP THIS MADNESS
For fear of having the powers that be victimize me
and because I intend to be blunt in this article, I
would rather be anonymous. I am a Jambite who is
greatly angered by JAMB with their unpopular
policy of choosing or should I say, forcing schools on
people. Honestly speaking I am writing in a fit of
apoplexy.
I am the first son of a widow. My father who was a
bus driver with a renowned transport company in
the country died in a ghastly motor accident. I was
twelve when he passed on. Growing up, although
daddy was hardly around, we had everything we
needed. If not for anything, at least I was in a
very good and expensive school when he was alive.
Although the transport company tried making
things a lot easier for my mum and his four
children when my father died, four years after
that we were totally forgotten. I don’t blame them
that much because their business started dwindling
two years after dad’s death. As much as I won’t
want to bore you with the story of my life, the
truth is that we started feeding from hand to
mouth when my father died.
With the entitlement my mother was paid, she
started the business of selling cloths. Considering
the state of things then, my mum did not think
twice before she moved I and my siblings to a
public school; it dawned on her that she needed to
cut down on expenditure. Our food which was always
studded with meat and fish seldom saw a piece of
meat after daddy’s burial_____ that was the part
that we hated then most. Having given a little
about my background let me go straight to the
matter at hand.
Recently, JAMB came up with a policy which, to
yours truly, is barbaric, callous and totally
unacceptable. I mean, where in the world are
people forced to accept things which are not their
choice? This is like the proverbial saying of taking
a horse to a river, only that in this case Ojerinde
and co are trying to force the horse to drink from
the river. Of course I understand that this policy
came up as a result of their desire to balance
things and ensure that a greater number of people
got admission this year; caution, should however be
their watchword. You don’t do things because you
think you can do them. In my opinion, for JAMB to
go ahead in choosing schools for Jambites would
tantamount to gross injustice on the part of the
candidates. It is, in short, an impediment on
people’s freedom of choice. Honestly, I don’t see
any sense in this unpopular policy.
Sometimes when these men and women that we
think should know better make policies and
decisions you can’t help but think they are
reasoning from their anus. Come to think of it,
JAMB came out some weeks ago to tell us that for
degree award institutions their cut off mark is 180
while that of polytechnics and colleges of education
should be 150. Why would they now wake up to
implement a policy that has kept not just Jambites
but also their parents on their toes? A friend of
mine told me that this policy of shipping people to
schools which they hitherto did not apply is
determined by their JAMB scores. They also told us
that it was because too many people applied certain
schools. I want to remind Mr. Dibu of an English
expression that says, “The more the merrier.” For
crying out loud, allow us to go and slug it out.
Let’s struggle for the limited space and at the
end those who did not make it would be happy that
at least they where allowed to fight. For the
record, that you scored higher than me in JAMB
doesn’t mean you would do the same in PUTME. It
doesn’t even me that you’re more intelligent than I
am.
It is totally wrong for Joint Admission and
Matriculation Board to be the ones deciding the
school that XYZ candidate should be posted to.
They had already done that by reducing the
number of university choices which Jambites used
to have to one. Dibu Ojerinde, why take that choice
away from us now? You should rather pay attention
in cutting down the cost of university education
especially in these private universities that I heard
you’re planning to ship people into. In fact, just
like NANS said some days ago, I also think you have
taken bribe. Tell us, Ojerinde, how much did they
pay you?
This policy would have been a welcomed development
if things are equal (or at least near equal) in the
universities we have in this country. How can I: the
first son of a widow who is finding it difficult to
feed afford the tuition fee that most of these
other universities pay? Just imagine, I bought
JAMB form, applied to study Law in UNN. God
knows that I studied all night, wrote JAMB and
scored 236 only to wake up to see that JAMB has
hit me with a sledge hammer. Honestly, if I end up
being among those that would be forced against
their will to go to these XYZ universities where
people pay through their nose; Ojerinde, if you try
it with me, God knows that the thunder that will
fire you and your generation is still doing press up!
Allow us to go to our choice of institution and take
our chances. “You pays your money and you takes
your chance,” that’s an English expression. Dibu,
check the meaning if you don’t understand it.
Another disadvantage of this stupid policy is that
it came at the wrong time. For crying out loud, we
have taken time to prepare for the Post UTME
screening of the respective schools that we applied.
I, for one, took time to go through UNN Post UTME
past questions and answers from 2005 till date.
Yes, I made use of the preparatory booklet they
call Total Victory Solution Set. So, if you now ask
me to go and write post UTME elsewhere at this
eleventh hour, that would disorganize me.
I started this write up by giving a hint of where
I’m coming from_____ my background. My late
father (God bless his memory) loved education. He
had always told me that one day I would be his
Lawyer. And before God who made me, I have
struggled on empty stomach to come this far. My
mother is there at the shop where she sells clothes
hoping that I would make it to the University of
Nigeria, Nsukka, but Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, in his
cosy office, has decided to put a road block on my
way. Although I don’t know where the tide would go
but the spirit of my late father, I’m sure, would
come after JAMB if at the end I’m among those
who would be transported to God knows which
expensive private university.
Prof. Dibu Ojerinde and his bunch of short sighted
allies should know that it’s not all about being given
admission; it’s about being able to pay the tuition
fee. It’s also about being happy in the environment
where you find yourself. Quote me anywhere, Dibu,
with the way he’s going, would end up breeding
unhappy undergraduates. Yes, they are in school
but they are not happy. This, I’m sure, will have a
couple of negative ripple effect.
People would rather be happy that they tried their
choice but at the end, due to stiff competition, it
didn’t work out. If JAMB does not put an end to
this madness it would leave a lot of young people
mad!
I have said my mind. QED.

~~ taking up rational decisions entails dis-organising and later re-arranging but not without setting the right time for such hence, it will bring dissentment to such holistic policy. The timing for the promulgation of this policy it took those venal high-ranking school officers unawares hence thwart their perpetual acts of favouritism to their candidates thereby not allowing those who earn it by merit to gain entrance i.e vc list..... makes people resort to haste conclusion amid frustration that our institution is corrupt which is never but the people running them. |
