The closing date for the registration of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) as announced by JAMB, has been extended till 5th February.

We therefore wish to advise all prospective Naijaloadites who are yet to purchase their 2016 UTME forms to do so on or before February 5th, 2016.

This also extends to candidates who are still waiting for supplementary or additional list of their choice schools for the 2015/2016 admission year to be released.

It is always a bad idea to have all your eggs in one basket. There is no 100% guarantee that your name will appear on the list even if the school eventually releases it.

To be on a safe side, get the JAMB form before it expires. That way, even if you miss the 2015/2016 admission, you will still stand a chance in the 2016/2017 session.

Also remember the examination is expected to commence February 29th 2016 (all things being equal).

You can make the most of the remaining time by using our JAMB CBT tools and materials as well as keep your self updated with any recent information as it concerns 2016 UTME via this link:

He explained that religious study in the school curriculum would inculcate good mor*l behaviour in the students and change the life for good.

Adamu, who also cleared the air on the issue of wearing Hijab, said President Muhammadu Buhari has not said anything against the wearing of Hijab, adding that President Buhari would not like to say anything that would go against the religion, saying the President is a respecter of religion.

He explained that the wearing of Hijab would only be resisted from public places to expose those that use it to explode bombs in the public domain.

The governor congratulated the three best schools in the state that were honoured by the council for their candidates performance in the May/June 2014 WASSCE and appreciated WAEC for it investment in the future of the children.

The chairman of WAEC NNC, Mrs. Anne Okonkwo said the awards are aimed at encouraging the youth to strive for excellence in their academic pursuits noting ‘’it is my hope that some of the youth who are here today to witness this ceremony, will be challenged by these Awards to work harder in order to win similar laurels in future.’’

Mrs Okonkwo use the opportunity laud the federal and other state governments for their support to the council over the years even as she thanked Governor Mimko for his investment in education and the performance of schools in the state in WASSCE.

The Head of National Office (HNO), Mr. Charles Eguridu, disclosed that the NNC ensures that the policies of the council in Nigeria are decided in the best public interest, and appropriate decisions are taken at all times, for the smooth conduct of the WAEC’s operations.

Eguridu appreciated the support and understanding which the state government has continued to give to the council in its efforts to improve service delivery to numerous stakeholders in the state and Nigeria as a whole.

At the event, 40 WAEC staff were given long service award for their 20 years meritoriously service in various capacities while Governor Mimiko described the awardees as worthy ambassadors of the council and wished them more years of productive service to the council and the nation at large.

The Senate, yesterday, directed the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, to extend the validity of its results to a period of at least three years. JAMB was also ordered to immediately stop its policy of re-assigning candidates to schools they didn't apply to, saying such policy was contrary to the act establishing the board.



The order came following a motion entitled: ”JAMB’s New Admission Policy, “ sponsored by Senator  Joshua  Lidani, APC, Gombe South, which was debated during plenary.

They also urged JAMB to consult widely with Parents Teachers Association, PTA, ASUU and all other stakeholders in the education sector with a view to coming out with a friendlier holistic, comprehensive and sustainable admissions policy.

It also directed its Committee on Education to enquire into circumstances surrounding the JAMB policy, including all allegations of favouritism and generally review the power of JAMB vis-a-vis administration and submit findings within one week.

Lidani said JAMB, at its 2015 Combined Policy Meeting, held on July 14, 2015, in Abuja, announced the adoption of a policy whereby candidates of universities with surplus applicants for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations, UTME, were reassigned to other universities with lower number of candidates than their capacities. Which he said was inappropriate because some candidates get sent to private universities that they cant afford.

Six female students of Delta State University, Abraka, one of them a final year student, were shamelessly caught with “expo materials” during their final examination…

An examiner identified as Sylvester Okiemute caught a final year female student of the Department of Library and Information Science with incriminating materials during an examination.

Sources said the student was caught while sitting for an exam on ‘Entrepreneurship and Information Services’ by the examiner who had been observing her suspicious moves.

It was gathered that the examiner, convinced that the student was making reference to a paper smuggled in, he asked her to hand over the paper. The girl denied and that led to a shouting match between the examiner and the student.

To the surprise of most of those present, the examiner dipped his hands into her private part and recovered the incriminating materials.

A source, who narrated the incident, said this same female student was earlier caught by another examiner and she pleaded with the examiner, who later pardoned her.

He pardoned her gave her another booklet to start over again, but she was caught again, 45 minutes later.

Confirming the incident, the university Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Victor Peretomode, said the university had declared total war on illegality and examination malpractices.

Peretomode warned that any student found involved in exam malpractices would be shown the way out.

The West African Examination Council (WAEC) says it is not considering adopting a Computer-Based Test (CBT) mode for its examinations

Its Head, National Office, Mr Charles Eguridu, made the clarification at an interactive forum with the Education Correspondents on Thursday night in Abuja.

Eguridu said it would amount to “intellectual dishonesty’’ for him to say that the council would introduce CBT in the next five years or the near future.

According to him, the purpose of education is to prepare people for life, not to pa$$ examinations; hence the need to examine different domains which CBT cannot accommodate.

“There is what we call the cognitive domain; that is what you have learnt that you can put in your head.

“There is also what we call affective domain that has to do with your emotions.

“There is also what we call the psychomotor domain that is skills which you can express using your hands and your body.

“I am yet to see any education expert who will tell you that you can measure the psychomotor domain using CBT.

“Any test that will use computer to evaluate who will be a good carpenter cannot be a valid test.’’

He said the examinations conducted by the council took into cognizance the three domains that measured ability to recall, apply and practicalise.

Eguridu said that in psychomotor domain, candidates did practical tests in agricultural science in the farm and the examiner supervised their actual agricultural practice.

He said that those doing woodwork were made to carry out physical designs of whatever woodwork a$$ignment they were going to do and evaluated on the outcome of their work.

The WAEC official said that even Netherlands where people went to learn CBT had yet to apply CBT in all its examinations.

He said, “In Netherlands which people emulate in CBT, they have not been able to migrate 40 per cent.

“How many schools in Nigeria have hardware? How many schools in Nigeria have the facilities to have those computers?

“There is the additional problem of electricity and internet connectivity.

“What JAMB is doing is commendable because theirs is an admission test; it is a certification examination.’’

Eguridu said that WAEC was using specialised gadgets in detecting examination malpractice as the device had ability to transmit any irregularity to its data base in Lagos.

He said that the council had started encrypting the data of candidates in their results to avoid falsification.

According to him, WAEC has not had any issue of examination leakages in the past five years.

The WAEC chief also said that the council had reversed itself on withholding of results of candidates in those states that owed it following appeals from the stakeholders.

He said that the council was still favourably disposed to granting such credit facilities to states being a service rendering organisation.

Eguridu urged the affected states to pay up their debts in order to keep the council running. (NAN)

The Oyo State Government would no longer pay the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) registration fees for students, Soji Eniade, the State Head of Service has said. Mr. Eniade also said that from the 2015/2016 Academic Session, students would pay annual Education Development Levy of N3,000.

This is contained in a state issued on Wednesday in Ibadan by Eniade.

The statement is titled: “Efforts of Oyo State Government to Address Poor Performance of Students in Public Secondary Schools.”

He said that government took the decision in order to guard against poor performances of students in public schools.

According to the statement, the state government has stopped further payment of WAEC registration fees with effect from 2015/2016 academic session.

“This is as a result of poor financial status of the state government, coupled with the lackadaisical attitude of parents and students to the promotion of quality education.

“Apart from this, the government also introduced payment of N3,000 by all students on annual basis as Education Development Levy.

“The payment will be made in three equal installments of N1, 000 per term; the fund gathered will be utilised to complement government’s effort to improve infrastructure in public secondary schools,” the statement said.

Besides the financial aspect of the ‎re- positioning, Eniade said that there would be enforcement of 80 per cent attendance of students in schools.

Other measures taken by the government include cancellation of automatic promotions, and re-invigoration of extra mural classes, as well as establishment of zonal education monitoring committees, among others.

“This will go a long way to bring a halt to truancy among students and prevent social ills within and outside schools’ premises,” he noted.

The Academic Board of Yaba College of Technology, Yaba, Lagos, has expelled 73 students of the college for presenting suspected forged results. A statement issued by the college made available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Sunday said that the affected students were those pursuing part-time programmes for National Diploma and Higher National Diploma.

Signed by the Deputy Registrar of the college, Mrs Titilayo Obadimu, the statement said the affected students registered for 2013/2014 academic session.

According to the statement, the results are discovered during the verification exercise of Senior Secondary School Certificates and National Diploma results.

It said further that 46 students for National Diploma and 27 students for Higher National Diploma were affected.

“All affected students are advised to hand the property of the college in their possession, including student identity cards, to their various heads of department, the librarian and the dean of students’ affairs with immediate effect,’’ it said.

Mr Charles Oni, Head, Public Relations Unit of the college, told NAN that the college had zero tolerance for all forms of malpractices and social vices.

He said that all documents presented for admission into the college were always subjected to rigorous screening.

He, therefore, urged prospective students to steer clear of malpractices, including results’ forgery.

The National Universities Commission (NUC) has listed eleven Nigerian universities that have failed to meet the standards of the the commission.

The NUC stated that it denied the listed private universities full operational licenses over their inability to meet set standards three years after they were issued provisional licences, Premium Times reports.
The executive secretary of the universities commission, Julius Okojio, who was speaking at the presentation of the full operational licences to nine other private universities, explained that the 11 affected private universities were given two years to get their full operational licences, but failed to get them in three.

Wesley University of Science and Technology, Landmark University, Rhema University, Samuel Adegboyega University, Paul University, Oduduwa University, Tansian University, Baze University, Obong University, Achievers University and Wellspring University are the institutions listed.

Although he did not state any measure for the affected institutions, Okojie, noted that the provisional licence was intended to create room for effective mentoring and qualitative growth within the first three years of operation of a new private university.

“That was also part of NUC’s initiative for early warning signals to detect compromises in quality for the application of corrective and remedial measures to redress such situations.

“If we don’t monitor them now they will have problems. So they will slow down on programmes, (we) look at their staff strength and look at their programmes,” he was quoted to have said.

The vice chancellor of Caleb University, Ayodeji Olukoju, who also lent his voice to the recent development, noted that private universities are the way forward for tertiary education in the country.
The institutions which got full operational licences include Veritas University, Caleb University, Geofery Okoye University, Fountain University, Adeleke University, Western Delta University, Afe Babalola University, Salem University and Nigerian Turkish Nile University.

The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) will today announce the release of results of May/June 2015 West African Senior School Certificate Examination. WAEC may also release list of debtor states, owing about N4billion.

WAEC Head of National Office, Lagos, Mr. Charles Eguridu, had at a briefing in Lagos two weeks ago, threatened to withhold results of candidates in those states.

Eguridu, who did not mention the states, threatened to do so if they failed to pay within a fortnight from his disclosure.

The federal government had backed WAEC’s threat to withhold results.

Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Education, Mr. MacJohn Nwaobiala, while interacting with State House correspondents after briefing President Muhammadu Buhari late July, urged the affected states to redeem their pledges to avoid embarrassment.
