Earlier, the Registrar of the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Professor Dibu Ojerinde had taken the stakeholders through a detailed analysis of the outcome of the last UTME in terms of candidate’s performances in terms of the spread of applicants and choice of institutions.


Prof Ojerinde also announced that the body of Committee of Vice Chancellors have agreed to a proposal  on possible admission of candidates rejected by institutions of their choice for lack of space but who passed very well to be considered by other institutions that may be interested in such candidates. To this end, Professor Ojerinde said that vital information about the rejected candidates would be made available to the institutions including the telephone numbers.
