JAMB 2013,WE HOLD AS EARLY SCHEDULED

If you have been thinking that
JAMB will extend date for the
2013 UTME as usual, then you
must have to re-think!

The Joint Admissions and
Matriculation Board (JAMB) has
said it would still conduct the
2013 Unified Tertiary
Matriculation Examination (UTME)
scheduled at the end of the
month.

The board was reacting to
reports that the Stephen
Oronsaye’s white paper had
recommended the agency scrap
the examinations.

A statement by JAMB’s
spokesman Fabian Benjamin said
the process of scrapping UTME
would “go through due process
before becoming a law.” If you
missed our previous publication
on this, read FG to stop UTME,
NECO, others.

Benjamin said the board was a
responsible and responsive
organization not aversed to innovation, changes and
government policies skewed to
improve the lot of the sector.

He however said the 2013 UTME
slated for April 27 would take
place as scheduled and dates for
the computer based testing will
be communicated to candidates
soon.

National Examination Council
(NECO), the second agency under
the Federal Ministry of Education
(FME) penciled for scrapping
according to the white paper,
refused to comment on the
matter.

When Newsmen put a call
through to the Registrar of NECO
Professor Promise Okpala, he responded and said he was in a
meeting and unavailable to speak.
