UTME<\/a> slated for June 19 to July 3,\u201d the JAMB official said.<\/p>\nHe reiterated the board\u2019s commitment to ensuring that every Nigerian child desirous of tertiary education would be given an equal opportunity.<\/p>\n
\u201cSince I came here this morning and interacted with candidates, I have discovered that most of them are largely unserious and are basically the cause of most of their challenges.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe keep hearing flimsy excuses such as my lesson teacher used his phone to generate the profile code, our tutorial centre helped us to register and I was not in town.<\/p>\n
\u201cOther reasons advanced are: I used my mother\u2019s NIN to generate my profile code, my mummy did the registration for me,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
According to the registrar, some candidates were honest enough to say they did not have money to procure UTME forms.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have also seen cases where rather than send their NIN to 55019, candidates sent it to 55012, while others sent the same command with post-paid phones rather than pre-paid,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Over 500,000 candidates had claimed they were unable to register for the examination within the given time frame \u2013 before May 15. JAMB later extended the registration to May 29.<\/p>\n
The candidates cited inability to generate a profile code and difficulty in obtaining the National Identification Number (NIN).<\/p>\n
JAMB had insisted that no candidate would be allowed to sit for the examination without providing the NIN.<\/p>\n
Following the challenges, the board allowed a two-week window for the affected people to lodge their complaints at its offices or registration centres and get help.<\/p>\n
Addressing journalists later, Mr Oloyede called on state ministries of education to regulate activities of tutorial centres as a strategy to save the education sector from collapse.<\/p>\n
Mr Oloyede said that activities of some tutorial centres remained a hindrance to efforts at sanitising the country\u2019s education system.<\/p>\n
According to him, tutorial centres are a haven for examination malpractice.<\/p>\n
The JAMB registrar said some tutorial centres held the system to ransom with ungodly activities.<\/p>\n
He said that many operators of the centres were school dropouts operating from dilapidated, abandoned and uncompleted structures.<\/p>\n
He regretted that some parents were patronising them with delight.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese people are just introducing these candidates to how to beat the system, how to make sure that they get questions, particularly fake questions, because they cannot get JAMB questions,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The registrar said that parents must learn to allow their children and wards to go through the normal process of learning for them to be psychologically mature for tertiary education.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnother major challenge threatening the system is that of intruding parents,\u201d the JAMB official said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey are intruders, who will not allow these children to think rightly and do things on their own but want to hurriedly push them into primary, secondary and tertiary schools at very tender ages.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat is why many of them are prone and exposed to so many mistakes.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn order to show the nation that the problem of registration is not what a section of the media is painting it to be, we came up with this initiative of asking all candidates with genuine excuses to visit our offices nationwide,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The registrar said through the process JAMB discovered that some candidates went as far as using their bank verification numbers in a bid to get their profile codes rather than the NIN.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
