JUST IN: JAMB suspends use of NIN for 2020 exams

The Registrar of JAMB, Ishaq Oloyede, DG of NIMC, Aliyu Aziz and other officials during the press conferenceThe Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has suspended the use of the National Identification Number for registration for the 2020 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination UTME.

The registrar of JAMB, Ishaq Oloyede, who stated this while briefing journalists in Abuja on Saturday, said the move was to provide more time for candidates to get their national identification numbers.He asked candidates to disregard the use of NIN for the 2020 registration and strictly comply with other procedures for the registration. He however said that JAMB will consider the use of NIMC for 2021 exams.

The board last year said from 2020, candidates will register for its examinations with their national ID numbera to solve the challenges of multiple registration.

Extortion averted, those that already fall victim sorry.

Foolish people... thieves

But who actually came up with such a sick idea at the first place....people need to be sanctioned for issuing epileptic policies ☹️☹️

Classic Naija, no surprises here.

Why was it in place before? Senseless lot

Good riddance

What does it take to think and plan well in Nigeria? Why do we have heavily paid government’s officials without thinking caps? Sad!

Awon weyrey

Nigeria! What a fvcking country

e don burst.

Have we ever met a deadline in this country?

In the first instance, what concerns Jamb with NIN number if not executive recklessness obtainable in Nigeria.

Some people's bread and butter has been blocked. Funny thing, no one has articulated the impact of this policy on foreign students who wish to attend Nigerian universities. I was in a set with Liberian students in my university. How will it affect them?

A country living in falsehood, scared of authentic census because of the truth that will be revealed. Suddenly they want accurate data for JAMB exam applicants. No thinker is surprised that the plan has failed. Nigeria is scared of accurate election data for the same reason

Expectedly

If JAMB intends to return this, they should make provision for Non-Nigerians to input passport numbers as it's not the case now. This will ensure that non-Nigerians can enroll into our UNIs.

Lack of adequate planning

It was arrant nonsense from the beginning

Lol....confused generation😂😂😂

Lolsssssssssss

Everything just scatter.

They shouldn't have brought the idea in the first place. Good they have suspended it.
