Oluwashina Following the reported issues on the
ongoing 2017 UTME registration, the
Chairman, Academic Staff Union of
Universities, (ASUU) University of
Ibadan Chapter, Dr Deji Omole has
called on the Registrar of JAMB, Professor Ishaq Oloyede to voluntarily
resign from office.
The academic union also asked the
Minister of Education, Mallam Adamu
Adamu to call the registrar to order to
lessen the difficulty being experienced
by the candidates.

According to Dr Omole, JAMB had
outlived its usefulness and the best
thing is to scrap it and allow
universities design their standard
examination for their own candidates. He noted that the fact that a mock
examination was stopped due to
logistic reasons points to
incompetence of the JAMB Registrar.
"Why will anybody make life difficult
for candidates whose parents are
struggling to live under the terrible
condition the government has made
them to live in?”
