JAMB registrar, Mr. Dibu Ojerinde, has faulted the Nigerian senate's call for that UTME results be valid for 3 years.According to him, such a policy would delay and obstruct the education progress of students across board."There are complexities in this thing, until we areable to clear it. When you say you will use JAMB results for three years, is it an achievement test or aptitude test?However, are we delaying his or her life? Are we postponing his or her life by telling them to stay at home? If by next year he doesn't get the cut off points, what happens?Mr. Ojerinde also said that expressing reservations about the Senate position did not in any way signify opposition to cutting cost."I have nothing against the idea, because we will tell the children, 'those bluffing Polytechnics and College of Education, go there and waste their time', if it is a waste of time."He spoke in Abuja during the opening ceremony of JAMB-UNEB Benchmark on Item Banking.
N igerians must move on together as a breakup is not an option, former Senate President, David Mark, said on Friday. “Those who are agitating for otherwise are missing the point. Nigeria has crossed many crucibles. We cannot reverse ourselves,” Mr. Mark told Kaduna State Acting Governor, Alhaji Aminu Shagali, in Kaduna. He was at the head of a delegation of the Nigeria Defence Academy (NDA) 3rd Regular Course Alumni Association on a courtesy visit to the acting governor. “The only option is to move on in a manner that is progressive, peaceful and united,” he was further quoted as saying by his media aide, Paul Mumeh. “We may have our disagreements. But a breakup is not an option. We can resolve our differences through meaningful dialogue and genuine conversation." “There is no use heating up the polity,” the ex-Senate president added. He noted that no matter the imperfections, the nation is greater and better as an indivisible country.
