JAMB Registrar Speaks On Validity Of UTME Results For 3 Years

JAMB registrar, Mr. Dibu Ojerinde, has
faulted the Nigerian senate’s call for that
UTME results be valid for 3 years.
According to him, such a policy would
delay and obstruct the education progress
of students across board.
“There are complexities in this thing, until
we are able to clear it. When you say you
will use JAMB results for three years, is it
an achievement test or aptitude test?
However, are we delaying his or her life?
Are we postponing his or her life by telling
them to stay at home? If by next year he
doesn’t get the cut off points, what
happens?
Mr. Ojerinde also said that expressing
reservations about the Senate position did
not in any way signify opposition to cutting
cost.
“I have nothing against the idea, because
we will tell the children, ‘those bluffing
Polytechnics and College of Education, go
there and waste their time’, if it is a waste
of time.”
He spoke in Abuja during the opening
ceremony of JAMB-UNEB Benchmark on
Item Banking.
