After all said and done, candidates will still claim error in Name spelling and declaration of age and JAMB will still extort the candidates by charging huge fees for correction of data.

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has said it will no longer use cyber cafes for registration of candidates, beginning from the 2019 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).

JAMB’s Registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, said this on Thursday on the sideline of a meeting with proprietors of Computer Based Test (CBT) centres at the University of Lagos.


“We are no longer going to allow the cyber cafes to do the registration exercise for prospective candidates because they are extorting candidates and overcharging them.

“They also do services they do not have the capacity to do, coupled with the fact that there was no way of tracking them because they were not registered.

“Another major reason is the mix-up they create on the data of the candidates. Some will just ask the candidates to write their names and other details down for them.

“On accumulating such data, they now get all of them mixed-up, thereby creating problems for these candidates.

“We know there will be uproar because they make a lot of illegitimate money from these services, but we cannot leave the candidates at their mercy.

“Particularly when people will make noise that it is JAMB that was extorting them,’’ he said.
The professor urged all prospective candidates to do their registration and access the board’s major services in any of its 718 accredited centres in the country.

Oloyede said the board would commence the sale of the registration form on Jan.3, 2019 and would span six weeks.

He gave the assurance that the general elections would not affect the sale of forms, adding that the board had adjusted its examination schedule ahead of the election.

“We thank INEC for giving us an early notice and so, it is expected that the exercise will be hitch-free,’’ he said.

He told news men that as always the case, there were special centres for visually impaired candidates.

He added that the board was already considering the introduction of a new technology for smooth conduct of the examination for such candidates.

“Next week, some of our officials will be in the United Kingdom where all the assessment bodies, who are attending to the blind, will meet.

“They will meet with a view to finding the best technology to use for these special candidates at a better price, because of the exchange rate.

“However, those with Braille machines, they are available; we will give them and those who do not have, we want to encourage them, whatever best method available to us, we will deploy because we want to be as inclusive as possible.

“That is also why we have set up a committee of experts under Prof. Peter Okebukola, to look for all-inclusive methods to be able to attend and bend it to suit the purposes of all these peculiar candidates,’’ he said.

Earlier, while addressing the CBT proprietors, Oloyede warned that the board would not tolerate any JAMB-related materials in all the centres, especially question papers, as most often turned out to be fake, thereby duping innocent candidates.

He said that JAMB would also not hesitate to blacklist any centre that attempted to undermine the integrity of its examination through infractions.

“JAMB will continue to partner with you, empower good CBT centres to do things properly, as all essential services will henceforth be done by our good CBT centres.

“But to whom much is given, much is expected and so as we restrict services to you, you will be rewarded accordingly.

“But that does not stop there, as we will also beam our searchlight by tracking you also, to ensure that you remain in the right track,’’ the registrar said.

He noted that make-shift CBT centres too would not be allowed, adding that the board normally conducted an all year round examination for parastatals and agencies, and candidates for tertiary institutions.

“Do not pack up your centres and convert it to another thing, after the UTME, because we can come at any time for inspection,’’ he said.

Oloyede said that all the CBT centres must ensure that the dual screen registration process was followed strictly and ensure that candidates sign out by doing a thumb print that would ensure that data was uploaded and printed. (NAN)

Just 718 accredited centers all over Nigeria And trust me, only about 500 will be functioning @their full capacity.
500 divided by 36 states + FCT equals 13.5135135135. That's 14 (to the nearest whole number)

Which means, an average of 14 centers per state.

What will then happen to Kano state that has 44 LGAs or Lagos that has 20LGAs.

The emotional trauma or torture some will get from this alone, can make them fail exam.

I laugh in Swahili grin

Jambites, Now Your Suffering Continues

Forcing candidates to register from JAMB designated centers is a terrible idea. Prospective JAMB candidates should have the FREEDOM to register from the comfort of their homes or from wherever, including cyber cafes. Why do we like making life difficult for ourselves?

This is ridiculous. Millions of applicants to do their registration and access the Board's services in just 718 centres? Who owns these centres? Why empower and enrich a few to the inconvenience and disempowerment of the majority if not because of corruption?

They obviously don't know or acknowledge that technology is democratic, I can use ANY service and/or provider I choose. If a candidate registers in a non-accredited centre, will his application be blacklisted?

God bless Prof. Oloyede. I know him to be a man of integrity with discipline. He transformed UNILORIN into a standard and well recognised institution both at local and international level .

Since the day this man has been made registrar of jamb, he has changed a lot of things positively and also exposed corruption in the system. I could remember he remitted billions into the coffer of federal govt last year which has never happened in the history of jamb before.
This man deserves some encomium.


At whose expense is he making the money? Extorting innocent poor students, compelling fresh graduates to make payment of N10,000 to regularise their admission and if a single mistake is made during that process one have a fresh payment of 10k because the form can't be edited after submission.

Imagine Jamb conniving with the NYSC to compel fresh graduate to make new separate payments in other to reprint a new Jamb result slip and admission letter after graduation before they can be placed on a so called fictitious 'matriculation list' before they can be mobilised for service and failure to download either after the first and second mean you have to make a fresh payment. All this and more are some the useless policy he introduced
