Them go reject am

Nigerian education is in a perilous time. If it takes Minister of Education to make decisive decision on simple matter of modality on admission policy, it worries how long it would take him to take measures in addressing moribund education sector burdened with myriads of problems. If leg dragging all this while would only produce this result after about 3 months, then he should have contacted or contracted UI to help his lazy mind and hands on this. After all no one is in doubt that UI has been using similar mechanism all along in admission processes.

I don't know how they want to resolve riddle of admission policy they are pushing. OAU is highly sought after University in Nigeria. Yearly, candidates who apply to OAU are conservatively more than 50,000. Those who yearly score 200 are not less than 10,000. After the grilling of defunct PostUTME, you would have about 7000 who scored above 200. Also the school runs Pre-degree programme with yearly intakes of about 2000. The present capacity of the school can hardly take more than 5000 per session. Now, giving admission to people with 180 is a problem. West, East and South are advanced in education. Most of students here score beyond 180 benchmark. Sending a boy who managed to score 186 from North is unrealistic and policy-failure. How would OAU navigate this thoughtless decision of Mr. Buhari's administration? Everything is not well with this man's shenanigan style. Morally, bringing such boys here is not healthy. This is a time in the history of the country when most of them are being or have been indoctrinated into jihadism. This cross-regional fraternity in education poses threats. Most of young people from North are intolerant of other people's choice of lifestyle. I perceive bad omens in offing.

More painful is the fact that choice of this man is crooked and I do not see anything tangible coming from him as a minister. This is a country filled and full of renown academics of long standing pedigrees but Mr. Mohammadu Buhari's choice was one Adamu Adamu. Nothing is hardly known about this individual. Search for any scholarship works written by him. In anyway Mr. Buhari has been leading this country with 18th century ideology in the name of "trust" he has in people from the section of the country he hailed from. Unfortunately, Mr. Buhari too would have done better if appointed Minister of War Against Corruption and other Allied Matters other than being President of Nigeria in the 21st century.
Father, this country needs light and deliverance.

wow...you just said it all...those that want post utme scrapped now see the result

we shouldn't forget in a haste that jamb is using three criteria in posting candidates to these schools and the fact that kaduna has 5 institutions does not change the fact that it isn't an educationally less developed state. you and i know that the number of versities in a given state is not the criterion used to determine an ELDS. am of the opinion that since jamb is in charge of admission,any candidate who score 180 and above can be posted to any school for admission consideration since it's no more putme where cut off is set at 200. i have seen someone with 196 posted to unilag as well. it's 45% merit,35% catchment and 20% elds.it simply means that if there are 100 candidates for a particular course and 50 candidates have scores btw 250 and above .jamb will not admit the whole 50 because they have high have high score, it will only admit 45 and also choose candidates with lower scores perhaps even below 200 using catchment and elds.. so someone with 260 who does not get it on merit and not from catchment or elds does not mean one from elds but scored lower can't get it.

So, how can Nigeria develop when more qualified aspirants are denied admission because of the less qualified ones? Besides, all states now have universities unlike before when elds policy was formulated.

JAMB has said it, that an institution can decide to reject a candidate but such institution must state the reason for doing so alongside the candidate's name on the JAMB website, so I think OAU will reject the girl during screening. If i want to go political, I'd have said part of why the post utme was scrapped is to give more opportunities to people from ELDS which is made up of mostly northern states with the exception of Rivers and Ebonyi state. Below are the guidelines signed by Prof Dibu himself for people who don't have problems with comprehension

They said d name was forwarded for consideration. Am quite sure OAU will not consider the candidate qualified for their admission

Politics is already playing out. Those children in support of scraping PUME don dey hear am

Guy u no fair o;
See as you nack am!!
Oya take 5!

Hmmm, they are not helping the guy at all. OAU insisting on 200 score to me is not essentially because they are wicked but if you can't score atleast 200 in both jamb and post jamb you simply most likely won't be able to cope academically in OAU. Talking from experience as a graduate of the school. This guy with 186 will have it rough in school when/if admitted.

bros calm down,it has been like this since the outset.. and even with putme it was still the same. it has also affected me once but there's nothing we can do about it because even the universities are in support of it and they have been using this method all along but there's a fowl play.instead of admitting elds, they fill the spot up with candidates that pay for runs,that is why jamb is solely handling the process to see to it that the elds are also given priority

no one is rejecting her, read the guidelines again. she can only be rejected if she has any deficiency in her o'level result. if non,then she's in or what reason will o.a.u give for rejecting her

so you think he wont cope because he had 186?what makes you so sure that he wouldn't have scored higher if there were putme or do you think people who 290 and above are more intelligent than those that scored lower

josephokeket:
Dear candidate, if you have not been shortlisted by Jamb, don’t worry all hope is not lost yet as we are shortlisting more names to school of your choice,

really? I'm really glad, please my daughter scored 075, what can i do so that her name will be shortlisted in the Massachusetts institute of technology VC list .Mentally deranged goat, better go and start cleaning Tricycles' windscreen, if you are jobless and poor.

you are right bro, judging from what happened in this year's exam, and for he/she to have picked OAU, it takes a lot of gut.

Genius101:

Yes in most cases sir, those who scored 290 are more intelligent than those who scored lower, it's obvious enough. There may be exceptions to the rule which may be due to distractions or unseriousness on the part of the 290 scorer or maybe the one who scored less than 290 didn't prepare well enough for jamb and now later buckled up after admission. But no way you will prove that someone with 250 is better than 290.

like u said bro there are exceptions.what if he is that exception plus for him to have chosen o.a.u knowing that he's from kaduna says alot. secondly, i have someone with 190 in jamb scoring 96 in unizik putme and was given medicine

Abraham4christ:

Jamb is starting from 180 to give admission there is probability that those who score 290,240,264 etc might have cheated in their examination.

and you think jamb will leave someone with 290 for 180cheated or not..they don't care about students

yes ..and jamb is really doing a "great job"... they even conducted "the most credible" exam this year....dibu ojerinde himself said he's sure schools like ife...ui and unilag won't admit less than 200

Alright. No problem bro.
Let's keep our hands crossed & see what's gonna happen next with all this admission stuffs.

OAU as a federal entity will admit both northerner nd southerner, if anyone is against it den let Fed universities admit only indigenes of d state where it is resident let's see who get affected most.
