hehehehe.....Prof. Is’haq Oloyede, the Registrar, Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), has assured all applicants that they would be captured in the ongoing UTME registration before its expiration on April 19.
Oloyede spoke with newsmen on Monday shortly after an inspection tour of JAMB registration centres in Abeokuta.
Oloyede said that the current challenges being faced by applicants across registration centres was due to the uncooperative attitude of some staff of registration centres.
He explained that facilities put in place by the examination body were being underutilised.
Oloyede said that he does not envisage any extension for the registration of Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) April 19 deadline.
“But as at yesterday which was Sunday, they registered more than 50, 000, on Friday they registered 80,000 which means this week they are going to cover the backlog.
“All we need is to go round, tell people to open up more avenue for students to register and tell the students to resist been extorted, there is nothing we can do other than to sensitise them,” he said.
The JAMB boss also said that the Mock Examination would be coming up on April 8 throughout the country.
“We are not taken a kobo from applicants, but they must pay N700 to the owner of centre where they want to take the examination, we do not own the centres”, he said.
