 Candidates with illegal admission should face consequences – JAMB


The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, says any candidate who chooses to get an underhand admission should face the consequences.

“It is high time JAMB improved the admission regularisation process.


“JAMB should include in its portal a better channel to get this done without visiting the office.

JAMB wrote: “The admonition should rather be to stop the exercise in its entirety.


“The policy is clear, ‘all tertiary institutions admission must be processed through JAMB… ‘As such, any candidate that chooses to get an underhand admission should face the consequences’.


“How would you be involved in illegality and still gets effrontery to offer advice on how the correction process should be carried out? Be guided.”
