The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has suspended Law admissions in eight universities for the 2025/2026 academic session following regulatory violations.

The decision comes after the Council of Legal Education (CLE) halted the Bachelor of Laws (LL.B) programme in the affected institutions for non-compliance with legal education standards.

JAMB spokesperson, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, listed the affected universities as:

  • Kwara State University, Malete, Ilorin
  • Bingham University, Karu, Nasarawa State
  • Redeemer’s University, Ede, Osun State
  • Western Delta University, Oghara, Delta State
  • Taraba State University, Jalingo
  • Arthur Jarvis University, Akpabuyo, Cross River State
  • Alex Ekwueme Federal University, Ndufu-Alike, Ebonyi State
  • Nigerian Police Academy, Wudil, Kano State

The Nigerian Police Academy’s suspension will extend through the 2026/2027 session.

“As a result, JAMB will not process admissions for Law candidates in these universities for the 2025/2026 academic session,” Benjamin confirmed in a statement.

A source from one of the affected institutions acknowledged past admission quota violations, stating, “We are being penalized alongside other universities to serve as a deterrent to future violations.”
