It's no longer news that the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board under the leadership of Prof. DIBU OJERINDE has banned thousands of CYBERCAFE OPERATORS from participating in the 2015 UTME registration exercise by restricting registration centres only to CBT centres.

For those who don't know, the following points are very important for Nigerians to note as I state them bellow:

1. JAMB under Prof. Dibu Ojerinde wants to monopolize UTME registration revenue for few rich individuals therefore preventing thousands of ordinary Nigerians ( cyber cafe operators) from the exercise. We suspect this to be a grand ploy to sharing such revenue among themselves while ordinary Nigerians who have been able to create jobs for themselves through online registration business are forced to close shops and join army of unemployed youths in Nigeria. It is a wicked plan to make the rich become richer while blocking opportunities for those who are trying to move up.

2. That JAMB under Prof. DIBU OJERINDE is creating inconveniences for millions of 2015 UTME applicants who may have to travel to far distances in order to get registered by few available CTB centres. It should be noted that some states have as little as two CBT centres. This policy creates unnecessary problems for applicants. As a matter of facts, one of the objectives of introducing online registration is to end congestion of JAMB candidates at JAMB offices and some sales points. Are we now back to square one?

3. JAMB under Prof. DIBU OJERINDE used to collect N10,000 each from thousands of cybercafe operators to get access code for UTME registration. In 2012, the payment was said to be refundable but for 2013 and 2014, the money was never re-funded. This money amounted to billions of naira. We are not complaining of paying for access code and we are ready to pay for 2015 UTME registration. If JAMB is uncomfortable because access code can be shared, they can make it in form of license.

4. Nigerians should note that JAMB under Prof. Dibu Ojerinde has always pursued policies that targeted excluding majority from participating in UTME registration so as to favour few capitalists who have direct contact or relationship with him most probably with the aim of collaborating with such people for mutual exclusive financial benefits. Such policies include the introduction of biometric license, the introduction of access code and yearly payments. Because these steps failed to stop the 'poor' thousands of cybercafe operators from engaging in their legitimate business through which they survive, the JAMB registrar has now taken now taken his policy of exclusion to a new level.

CONCLUSION
We call on our President, Goodluck Jonathan who is a lover of the poor and the weak to prevail on Prof. DIBU OJERINDE to stop this selfish capitalist policy and allow hundreds of thousand of cybercafe operators scattered all over the country to participate in the 2015 UTME registration. We are aware that our dear President has been working tirelessly to create jobs for the youths and therefore this policy by Prof. Ojerinde is anti-productive to Mr President's Transformation agenda as it will throw thousands of people back into unemployment market. We also call on well meaning Nigerians to prevail on Prof. Ojerinde to stop his anti-poor policy. JAMB is a public/government agency and not a private concern, he should therefore not personalize its policies and operations. JAMB belongs to all Nigerians. Thank you as you read and share. God bless Nigeria.
