The Nigerian Senate on Thursday, October 13,
extended the validity period of the Joint
Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB),
Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination
(UTME) to three years against the present one
year.
The extension was sequel to the amendment of
the Act establishing the JAMB and it scaled
through third reading today.
“The Nigerian Senate just passed the
amendment to the Joint Admissions and
Matriculation Board’s Act #JAMBBill SB. 245
into law. In the amendment passed, the Senate
strengthened the Board to allow the results of
students in the annual examination be valid
beyond that year.
Chairman of the Senate Committee on Tertiary
Education and TETFund, Senator Jibrin Barau
while presenting the report of his committee on
the #JAMBBill explained that the amendments
will further strengthen the Admissions Board in
its responsibilities. Senate President Bukola
Saraki, in appreciating his distinguished
colleagues for their work towards the passage
of the bill commented that the new
amendments will indeed bring financial relief to
students as well as parents and reduce
bottlenecks and corruption in the admission
process.”
