We Won't Interfere with Candidates' List- JAMB

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) yesterday said it would not interfere with the list of candidates sent by institutions for the 2016 admissions either by addition or removing of names. The board, which said it was committed to ensuring that admissions are concluded before or by the approved deadline of November 30, 2016, warned that no name of candidate must emanate from any other source outside the list prepared and recommended by the tertiary institutions. Registrar and Chief Executive of JAMB, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, spoke at the ongoing technical meeting on 2016 admissions to first choice institutions at the Bayero University, Kano. “It must be made categorically clear that the task of JAMB is coordination and not substitution of the traditional responsibilities of the Senates/ Academic Boards of tertiary institutions. Consequently, no candidate must emanate from any other source, JAMB inclusive, outside the list prepared and recommended by the institutions.
