ASUU

The Academic Staff Union of Universities, University of Ibadan chapter, has condemned JAMB’s policy of reassigning candidates to other tertiary institutions they didn’t apply to.

ASUU chairman in UI, Prof. Segun Ajiboye, described it as insensitive and exploitative of the children of the poor, adding that it amounted to an abuse of their fundamental human rights of freedom to choice.

He said JAMB had made the admission process chaotic and exposed candidates to fraudsters, saying that JAMB must consider the security of lives of candidates and their rights before introducing any policy.

Ajiboye, who also called for the scrapping of JAMB, said the body had outlived its usefulness.
