Jamb Talks on why CCTV cameras should be installed in all exam centers

Registrar and Chief Executive of the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board, Prof. Is-haq Oloyede, has emphasized on the reason the board will be using Closed Circuit Television Cameras for the conduct of 2017 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.

According to him, this is a part of the measures aimed at preventing examination malpractice during the UTME.

“We believe that certain things should be done.

For example, we are conducting the Computer-Based Test, I’m not aware of anywhere in the world where you do the CBT without CCTV. If you are not caught during the examination, you can be caught after the examination because the whole thing will be under coverage.

He further mentioned that operators of the CBT centres who fail to comply with the order to install CCTV cameras prior to the examination may not be accredited for the UTME.

He advised parents candidates against falling victims to fraudsters as the UTME forms are not yet on sale.

Concerning when the examination will commence, the JAMB boss stated that he cannot say categorically when it will commence but it will commence sooner than later.

In his words, “I can say clearly that I don’t know when we are going to start the sales of forms. All we want to do is to make sure that things that ought to be in place are in place. I cannot tell you exactly when it will be, but I know that sales will commence sooner than later. Why am I saying so? For instance, we are meeting with the heads of other examination bodies.

“We don’t want a situation where pupils will be put under pressure to give up either West African Senior School Certificate Examination or National Examination Council or any other examination whenever they are taking place simultaneously. That is one of the things we want to avoid.

“Secondly, if we hold our examination at a time when students are not ready, the result we get is a high rate of failure. Our examination is a ranking examination, not an achievement examination. This is why we are saying that it is not to extend the validity because the test is to be taken just once."

JAMB set to install CCTV cameras in exam halls 2017

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) says Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras will be installed to monitor the 2017 exams

JAMB urges the general public to disregard speculation that it has started the sales of its application forms for 2017 UTME


The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has disclosed plans to install Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras in all computer-based centres to be accredited for the registration of 2017 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).

JAMB registrar, Professor Ishaq Oloyede, revealed this during an interactive meeting with operators of CBT centres from across the country, at the University of Lagos (UNILAG), Daily Independent reports.

Oloyede said the introduction of the CCTV’s will help to monitor whatever is going on at the centres.

He also stated that the new process will exclude many cybercafe operators as the computer-based centres to be accredited must have 250 desktop or laptop systems in a single room, with provision for additional 25 systems as back-ups.

Oloyede said:“What we have said is that we are in a period of change, and what that means is that everything we have been doing must be reviewed. Whatever we have been doing rights will have to be reinforced while what were doing wrongly will be changed.



“For the purpose of the CBT centres, we have to introduce the CCTV so that whatever that is going on at our centres can be monitored anywhere in the world.

“We are also standardizing the CBT centres so that all CBT centres will have 250 computers with 10 per cent of the figure as backups.”

In a related development, JAMB has urged the general public to disregard the speculations that it had started the sales of its application forms for 2017 UTME.

Dr. Fabian Benjamin, the board’s Head, Media and Information, debunked the speculations in a statement on Sunday, December 4, in Lagos.

According to the statement, the Registrar of the examination body, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, expressed disappointment with the development and calls on Nigerians to ignore the claims.

Jamb Cut Off Mark 2017/2018 for all Uni, Poly, and COE

JAMB Cut-off marks that will be used for the 2016/2017 academic session admission exercise.

We have been receiving calls and messages from 2016/2017 JAMB UTME applicants regarding the official cut-off mark of various universities, polytechnics and colleges of education in Nigeria.

We are happy to inform all JAMBites that JAMB has finally announced the cut-off marks that would be used for this year’s admission exercise.

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) and tertiary education stakeholders on Thursday in Abuja adopted 180 as the cut-off mark for 2016 admission into universities, polytechnics and colleges of education.

The decision was reached at the 2016 Combined Policy Meeting on Admissions to Degree, Nigerian Certificate of Education (NCE) and National Diploma (ND) chaired by the Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu. In his opening remark, Mr. Adamu said if there was confidence in JAMB’s conduct of the University Tertiary Matriculation Examinations (UTME), there should be no need for post-UTME.

The post-UTME is organised by various tertiary institutions to screen candidates who applied to such institutions and who had scaled through JAMB’s UTME. “If the universities have problem with what JAMB is doing, they should come forward with it and we will address it.

“JAMB is one of the most active parastatals in the ministry; I expect that policies that would be beneficial to Nigerian students should be discussed at this meeting. “I believe there should be no ground to lower the quality; Nov. 30 remains the closing date for 2016 admission. “No institution should exceed its quota in admission; we will start issuing penalties to defaulting institutions.’’
