Dr Emmanuel Ndukwe, Chairman, Governing Board, Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), has expressed satisfaction with processes put in place by the board, ahead of the forthcoming 2020 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
He spoke during an inspection of Computer Based Test (CBT) centres across Lagos on Thursday.
According to him, remarkable achievement has been recorded in the process in Lagos already, especially with the ongoing registration of prospective candidates.
“I want to register my profound pleasure with what I have seen so far in these centres, especially with regards to the ongoing registration.
“I will like to say that these centres are performing according to the mandate given by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) and with this, I want to say that I am really impressed with Lagos centres.
“Lagos is the third state that we are visiting after Enugu and Abia, to monitor registration and see, first hand, the state of readiness of facilities for the conduct of this all Computer Based Test (CBT).
“In all, we have seen candidates having challenges to thumbprint due to congenital malfunctions, some others with hand malformations, cripple hand and sweating palms.
“Such candidates are really a challenge because it was not envisaged, but JAMB will give them equal opportunity to write the examination.
“We have invited them here today to our JAMB office here in Lagos in order to register them with our dedicated system,†Ndukwe said.
According to the chairman, if this also fails, the management will write a special report and forward same to the board for deliberation, or consider introducing new technology, like facial recognition.
He said that the board was being proactive to register candidates with these challenges and that those who could not make it to Lagos office would be invited to JAMB office in Abuja for their own registration.
