Senate Probes Post-ume Test by expensive007(m): 6:30am On Oct 14, 2011
The Senate has mandated its Committee on Education to
commence an investigation into the conduct of Post-UME test by
Nigerian universities and other tertiary institutions in the country.
Most senators spoke vehemently against the test, saying it had
put to question the credibility of the examinations conducted by
Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board annually.
The resolution to probe the test came after the Senate debated a
motion brought by Senator Heineken Lokpobiri and 35 other
senators highlighting the anomalies in the activities of the
universities.
Lokpobiri noted that JAMB had been empowered by law to
conduct tertiary examinations institutions in the country.
He said various universities charged fees and subject candidates
to a series of tests and interviews which most often take several
days to conclude.
He said, “This is a great cost to parents and guardians and a clear
violation of JAMB Act. Our children are also subjected to avoidable
inconveniences and risks.
“Now that JAMB is alive to its responsibilities as provided by law,
there will be no reason whatsoever to subject candidates to
another round of illegal test at great cost and its other attendant
consequences.”

well, i think that motion is ok. only if there i goin to b a proper cordination of the jamb exam. bcus some candidate through impasination and cheating merit the exam but they cant defend it. to me i dont blame those paverted and corrupt lacturals that frauds admission lists, bcus if there is a serious sanction for any body caught frauding admission list, i think that will serve as a deterrent to others not to do that, thereby forcing the students to study hard to pass independently.
