The Joint Admissions Matriculation
Board examination is one of the most important examinations in a Nigerian student's life.
There have been
speculations and rumours that the Joint Admissions Matriculations Board (JAMB)
forms are now available for sale.
Well, JAMB has spoken, and the answer
is no.
Dr Fabian Benjamin, the JAMB’s Head of
Media and Publicity, has more to say:
"I want the public to be patient.
We are putting finishing touches to the arrangements for a hitch free
outing."
The Dr was specifically concerned about
those who might fall prey to fraudsters who might be selling fake forms or
promising them ridiculous things.
On why the forms aren't available for
sale yet, he said:
“We do not want a repeat of what had
been happening before and during registration this year.
We need to ensure that prospective
candidates do the right thing and get their results without problems.
So we want to appeal to prospective
candidates to be patient as we will soon begin sale of the forms,’’
JAMB is one of the most popular
examinations in Nigerian academia. Last year, the most sought after University
for admission was the University of Illorin.
Some stats regarding the way people
applied to different universities also revealed some interesting patterns, and
perhaps, it might determine how people apply to universities this year.
