A 7-day-ultimatum has been given to the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board, JAMB, by an education consultant, Mr Oludotun Shodunke, who had asked the board to release the last UTME candidates’ exam scripts for remarking or face court action.
Sodunke alleged that the examination body failed many candidates because it was rumoured that the examination questions leaked.
The education guru, who led some candidates to protest the unjustified mass failure, had queried that the examination management board, led by Prof. Dibu Ojerinde failed in the conduct of the examination.
He noted that the right thing to have done after the body had learnt of the leaked papers was to cancel the exercise and fixed another day for it.
In his words, “You can not punish students with what I call monumental failure because the examination paper
leaked. Leakage of examination paper cannot be blamed on the students.”
It would be recalled that the last UTME examination result released recently showed that over 80% of the total number of student who sat for the examination failed woefully. Please stay updated.
