The Federal Government has debunked reports claiming that the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) is no longer required for admission into tertiary institutions.
Minister of Education, Dr. Tunji Alausa, in a statement on Thursday, described the viral report as “false and baseless,” stressing that it did not originate from the Ministry.
He reaffirmed that JAMB remains the legally recognised body for conducting entrance exams and coordinating admissions into universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education.
“The established admission process through JAMB remains fully operational,” Alausa said, urging the public to disregard unverified claims and rely only on official information from the Ministry or JAMB.
