JAMB Appeals To Candidates/Stake Holders To Remain Calm And Understanding

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board

(JAMB) in a statement has appealed to the

public to remain calm and understanding

following the planned protest by individuals under

the aegis of education consultants.

The statement made available by the JAMB's

public relations officer, Dr Fabian Benjamin

asked the aggrieved candidates to channel their

complaints to the public complaints unit of the

board or visit JAMB offices nationwide instead of

allowing themselves to be used in pursuit of

selfish interests.

Part of the statement reads, "We are not perfect

as an organisation but we are working hard to

ensure that Nigerian education is better than it

is. We have taken the risk to do the unthinkable

so as to change the paradigm.

"We will continue to call on all Nigerians to give

us the benefit of the doubt and with their

collective support we will give them one of the

best CBTs globally."

The board added that the worst CBT is far better

than the best paper and pencil test (PPT), where

candidates pouring acid on invigilators, bolting

with questions papers and engaging in all forms

of gross examination malpractices.
