Abuja, Nigeria – E be like say na rumors wan scatter ground as di Federal Government don sharply dismiss reports sey JAMB no dey required again for admission into universities and polytechnics. Wetin dey happen? Some people don spread gist online sey JAMB don finish, and na only individual institutions go dey conduct their own entrance exams. Na wah!
But wait, Minister of Education, Tunji Alausa, don come clear am for press. He talk sey all di online saga na ‘false’ and ‘baseless,’ like say dem wan use am play pranks. Alausa even make am known sey di ministry no send any statement wey fit cause this kind wahala, so abeg, make anybody wey dey follow dis rumor just relax.
“JAMB still dey maintain correct na dia standard for admission into all tertiary institutions,” Alausa emphasize. He no just stop there, e also warn sey people wey dey spread misinformation for di education sector make dem take am easy. “We dey try to keep di integrity of di admission process intact,” he talk.
Education for Nigeria no be play matter, and di minister sabi sey di current system dey work fine. He advise prospective students, their parents, and di schools to check only di official communication sources from di Ministry of Education and JAMB for correct updates on admissions.
As e be now, any rumor wey talk sey JAMB don carry bag and waka go na big lie. Di minister don yan say “dis information wey dey fly around no get any basis.” So, make we all cool down and let di system work as e suppose be.
