The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has threatened to
delist 262 institutions in 2013 for violating admission guidelines.
JAMB Registrar, Professor Dibu Ojerinde, made the threat during the 3rd
technical committee meeting of the board at the Michael Okpara
University of Agriculture, Umudike. Professor Ojerinde lamented that
from available records, only 14 universities are complying with
guidelines and regulations set by the regulating agency. He warned
institutions that are not complying to do so.
He maintained that the guidelines on admission still remain merit 45 per
cent, catchment area, 35 per cent, and educationally less developed
states, 20 per cent. Ojerinde added that the national minimum cut-off
point for 2012/2013 admission remains 180 which is 45 per cent of 400.
