A good number of things don’t add up in Nigeria. Social systems don’t work and maintenance of physical structures is a myth, but we at least thought we had gotten somewhere with the ease of carrying out transactions over the internet. More than 1.85 million students applied to write the UTME (Unified Tertiary Matriculation Exams) in 2016, but the process remains crude.
This clip from a concerned Twitter user tells its own story
The struggle to buy JAMB form in Maiduguri the Borno state capital.
The people of Borno are still recovering from the horrors of the Boko Haram sect. Why should they go through any of this?
It really doesn’t make sense that the Ministry of Education and JAMB(Joint Administration and Matriculation Board) don’t give top priority to students from the conflict-affected states in the North. For one, these kids have been forced to abandon their studies for years, surely the least we can do for them is make the learning process easier for them?
The process of applying for and getting the JAMB form needs to be a lot easier for students nationwide.
@Yadomah Jamb that one should buy from the comfort of his bed and apply there. Almost 3 decades after others simplified registrations online
