JAMB To Move UTME To Ilorin Over LAUTECH Students’ Protest by Lautechgossip(m): 6:32am On May 16, 2017
The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board, JAMB, on Monday said it will move candidates of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME, scheduled to write their examination at the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, LAUTECH in Ogbomoso, to Ilorin, due to students’ protest.

UTME candidates scheduled to use the LAUTECH campus Computer Based Test (CBT) centre were on Monday prevented from gaining entrance inside the premises by protesting students of the institution.

The students had mobilised themselves as early as 6.00 a.m. for the protest, and stationed themselves in teams across all entrances into the institution.

Reacting, JAMB spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin disclosed that the board was concluding arrangements to reschedule the exams for the affected candidates at Ilorin.

“We will reschedule them. Even though it’s not our problem, it’s the school’s problem, but they are our candidates.

There is no private centre in Ogbomosho and the closest centre to Ogbomosho is Ilorin”, he told Premium Times.

“This disruption happened today and we need to do some technical arrangements first.

“So, no date has been fixed yet. But we are going to write the exams in Ilorin except if LAUTECH resolves the students unrest”, he added.

Meanwhile, JAMB Registrar, Prof. Is’haq Oloyede, says no fewer than 440,000 candidates have sat for the 2017 UTME within two days across the country.

Oloyede told newsmen in Abuja on Monday that the exams would end in Bauchi, Abia, Niger states and some other states on May 15 while the UTME would continue in Kebbi state, Lagos state, Oyo and some other states.

And why did they say it's not their problem but lautech's.
Was it lautech that the candidates pay their JAMB fee to?
However, students of Lautech are free to protest but they shouldn't prevent these innocent children from writing their exam.
They should direct their grievances towards d cunning Aregbesola and d bastard that called himself constituted authority..

If those governors can't be alive to their responsibility as regards funding, they should kuku upload the school on OLX..

Oga ade, this school has been hit with one strike or the other because of the incompetent government handling it and for their voices (students) to b heard, they had to take some measures, which is what they just did. This will probably create enough awareness which will make the governors sit tight and think what they are doing through.

No, it's not. Ogbomosho to Ilorin is a 30-minute drive; in fact, some drivers make it in 20 minutes. That is a statement of fact. Stop spreading your ignorance on Nairaland.

although not jamb's fault, however, jamb should realize that some candidates chose ogbomosho because they have a place they can scot ahead of the exam, jamb should ensure ease of mobility by making first paper in ilorin for transferred candidates to be 9am and not the 7am paper. Not all towns in Nigeria is alive at 6am or earlier.

where is your friend coming from, male or female, if male, is he a street dude, this is to give a description that will ensure ease of movement and efficient cost.
I'm not in Igboora, but it's a town i visit regularly
modified.
from berger, he should get a bus to abule egba, board Abk along the road(300/350/400#), alight at Ita Oshin, board Igboora from the park(#400), if it takes too long for the vehicle to get filled up, take a cab to lafenwa, from there, take another to Rounda, walk up the road, take a vehicle to Igboora, dont take at the park there, it's #400, walk away from the park, it's #200/250.
tell the driver you are passing through College.
However, if the vehicle is going up through Eruwa, it wont take you through the school gate, but tell the driver to drop you at the junction that goes to College. Trek or take a bike(#30)
