Nobody is talking about operating computer, all they have to do is to point the mouse to the option and click. And yes anyother with basic knowledge of a smart, wouldn't take him/her more than 5 mins to know how to go about it.

Yes even some University graduate (attitude test) have same issue, I have personally seen them. But with a minute or two of orientation they can click away.

They won't type long essays or pragram anything nor where they ask to do some form of graphics design na just to click answer.

She claiming that 240 out of 250 student in a hall can't click on option from a monitor screen is not only a lie but stupid.


how would they click when they dont know the answer

On what ground is her claim valid? Because there are many student that can't operate computer? 240 out 250 student in a particular hall.

You weren't there either, so on what ground are you stating your case?

On the ground that the students we invigilated had similar experience.

I never had a computer from my secondary days, or better still never use one in school.

I went to the cafe.

Not having a computer in school doesn't implies that one won't be knowledgeable in it.


My little nephew can play around my laptop and locate where the game is, by just observing me on two occasion.

It is just a computer system and not rocket science.

Using judgmental or perceived opinion to sample the students we observed that virtually all the students were having issues in login in, clicking the answers and not knowing what to do even when they were enlighten in the exam hall. Aside that, we noticed the few ones who did, didn't utilize the allocated time as the system was failing.

I am not privileged though (maybe compare to others) but I am not.

Why was the mock exam put in place? I also have relatives that come the way from the village to sit for the exams and he happens to find is way around it.

I am aware of the fact that not everyone has the opportunity of knowing how to go around a system but the person claim that 240 out 250 student in her hall have no idea on what to do. That doesn't make sense. If I have time by tomorrow I would track her handle down and confirm the center, from there I would put all the pieces together.

You don't prepare for boxing fight in the ring. No matter how simple it is to click a mouse, don't try to learn it in exam hall.

I agreed with you on that, even University graduate are not left out; you can find them during attitude test.

If she had said all the students weren't able to login, I would have agreed to some extent.

Her was that 240 out of 250 don't know what they were doing when it comes to clicking the answers. That's what I disagree with.


Can you try on put a percentage on yours? On student that are completely clueless?

Lmao @ people who find it difficult to believe the lady's story, I've worked in a computer centre before & I saw several people who got scared just looking at a mouse. There are several people out there who can not operate a computer even if it's just to click the answers as someone put it.

Some people learn am and they pass, if my nephew of 7 can use the mouse to play Zuma; can't someone use it to just click on an option.

You people keep making the computer look like one rocket science.

I did not graduate from a science related course and at least I could program self. There is nothing in operating computer.

E be like sai last last I charity work for Nigeria go be computer literacy for all, we go enter all the villages.

It is possible but that her story never happened, if it did; the figure is obviously exaggerated 240 out 250.

When you they work for computer center, na everybody wey come una shop dey fear to touch mouse?

Obviously not all of them were afraid of the mouse, and the figure might be exaggerated, of course, it might also be used to drive home the point that a majority of the students in the exam hall can't operate a computer. I have a brother who also invigilated and the stories sadden the heart.

Jamb has a lot of work to do. There is still malpractices going in many centres probably that is why universities are still insisting on screening test. Aside that many students are not exposed to practical use of computers, many schools still emphasize on theoretical aspect. Even with the introduction of ICT in many schools, it will take some time for students to get use to computer. The believe that many students can operate phones should be disregarded because the two are different thing.
And your last paragraph about students been clueless is absurd you need to tend an apology for that. Have you visited interior villages to see how many of these students fair?. Someone will just wake up one morning to adopt a policy that can not work effectively well because it worked in other countries. You need to see the way many students were staring at the PC while many ask for assistance on how to click answers with mouse. Few tutorial centres teaches their students but how many students have access to such tutorial centres?. If Jamb registrar's claim is on the ground that many students uses smarphones, then he should have gotten phone devices since many students can relate with it instead of PC.

You don't get her point...

Wat the she is trying to say is that...

240 out of 250 students needed orientation b4 they could do anything...

They don't no how to click
Or do other simple stuff during exams until she explained those basic stuff to them..


Which is very very bad..
