Re: Senate Moves To Scrap Post-UTME by Freddonance(m): 8:58pm On Oct 03, 2017
POST UTME is more reliable than JAMB. it increases the competition among students as only the best will be admitted on merit before the man know man system of Nigeria will be employed. So many good students who are helpless in this regard has been admitted as against the fraudulent exams conducted by Jamb. JAMB exams if filled with lots of malpractices & irregularities. Jamb should be scraped instead.
only those who want to cheat will agitate for the cancellation or scrapping of POST UTME

I like to address issues without being unnecessarily emotional.

1) Nigerian Universities are currently underfunded yet you are taking away the little avenues they use in making money and balancing budget. To apply to any University across the globe you need to pay about $100 just as application fee which is non refundable even if you don't get the admission. The education in public universities is free already what is wrong in actually collecting a token for PUME. Of course I am not in support of excessive charges but stakeholders ought to come together and agree on a fixed amount for public universities and then enforce it.

2) Jamb does the fleecing - if you truly want to protect the rights of Nigerian youths then I think the best thing to do is to scrap Jamb itself. What is the use of the 5 billion being generated by jamb to the educational sector. It all ends up in the pockets of looters. These same schools you are taking funds from are severely underfunded. You have no problem taking away the pume because the money doesn't end in your pocket like that of jamb yet you are bothered about pume which is actually helpful to the universities.






i warned about this after getting the information from a reliable source in the military. a northern soldier who was not happy with the murder of innocent youths in the east. yes it sounds odd but its the truth.

When you admit people due to quota system over merit all you get is a big joke.. By the way why force a university to take in more than they can accommodate and yet FG will wait until ASUU strikes before they fund education. Still a fool at 57..

But why are the northerners always the ones championing this foolish motion? Could it be they found it difficult compete with better brains to get into the university of their choice or what's their problem? Although it doesn't concern me per se but I have younger relatives..
Re: Senate Moves To Scrap Post-UTME by Nobody: 10:19pm On Oct 03, 2017
Obasanjo created all these problems to Nigeria educational institutions. Now he's out there forming clueless saint.

Very soon Buhari's administration will start to proffer solutions to the issues they are refusing to solves.

Hope the mover of the motion is doing so In good faith. Hope his ward wasn't denied admission through Putme.

Quite frankly speaking, the move is a good one. It really amount to waste of time and resources writing jamb and post utme.

But I used to think that lack of enough institution that will take the millions seeking admission is the problem.

The Senate should rather create bil that will sanitise the private universities and provide an enabling environment for more institution to come on board. 120 universities 80 government owned and 40 privately owned. This is way too small for a country of 200 millions.

Brazil has about 3000 universities 70 of which is Agriculturally inclined. How can they have food shortage or how can their children seeking admission not have space.

Imagine about 8000 students applied for medicine in ABU last year and ABU have vacancy for only about 300 students.

I think PMB need to declare state of emergency on education.


God bless Nigeria and Nigerians

God bless PMB
Also note the pressure on public universities is another issue. There are enough universities to absorbed the students but because of the high fees in private universities, most students opt in for public ones.

PUTME isn't needed. There's no need writing the same exam to gain admission

There was an agreement between Jamb and universities to charge N2,500 for post utme,why would most universities not follow that directive?
