BREAKING: JAMB Direct Entry Registration Resumes (See New Guidelines)

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has announced that the 2023 Direct Entry registration nationwide has resumed.

 

 

 

The Registrar of JAMB, Professor Is-haq Oloyede disclosed this at a press briefing on Monday in Abuja.

 

 

 

According to the JAMB boss, the DE registration would close on April 28, 2023.

 

 

 

Oloyede lamented the high level of forgery of A Level certificates used for the registration.

 

 

 

Meanwhile, the JAMB Registrar said the board had introduced new guidelines to check such acts.

 

 

 

He said, “You will recall that the board commenced the 2023 Direct Entry registration on Monday, 20th February, 2023, but had to immediately suspend it following the discovery of the plethora of devices and machinations to circumvent and compromise the standard of A’ Level qualifications required from DE candidates.

 

 

 

“Recall that recent joint operations of the Federal Ministry of Education and the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission on DE qualifications brought to light some of these unsavoury and nefarious activities.

 

 

 

“Bayero University, Kano has also consistently brought to the fore the high rate of forgery of A’ Level qualifications for DE.

 

 

 

“The Board, concerned stakeholders and institutions are working assiduously to detect such and the ones already found are being dealt with according to the provisions of the law.”

 

 

 

Speaking further, Oloyede said the Board would only accept 13 qualifications/certificates for the 2023 Direct Entry registration, which include; first degree, university diploma, Higher National Diploma, Ordinary National Diploma /National Diploma and Nigeria Certificate in Education.

 

 

 

“For instance, it was discovered that in previous years, some candidates used unacceptable and forged A’ level certificates/qualifications to register for Direct Entry and eventually got admitted. For example, out of 148 candidates verified by BUK, only six were found to be genuine. By implication, 142 of the results were forged.

 

 

 

“Others are Interim Joint Matriculation Board A’ Level, Joint Universities Preliminary Examination Board A’ Level, NABTEB Advanced National Business Certificate, NABTEB Advanced National Technical Certificate, NABTEB GCE-A’ Level (2015 – 2021), Higher Islamic Studies Certificate by NBAIS, International Baccalaureate and the National Registered Nurse /National Registered Midwife.”

 

 

 

He, however, said that the 127 candidates who had earlier registered for the 2023 DE before the exercise was suspended would be requested to return to the registration centres and update their application.

 

 

 

The JAMB boss also revealed that the data bank put in place to address challenges associated with the A’ Level qualifications had now been renamed as ‘Nigeria Post-secondary Education Data System’. CONTINUE READING………………………………..
