UTME registration 2022: JAMB sends messages to CBT centres

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has reacted to complaints by CBT centres over the high cost of diesel and energy problems in the country.

JAMB Registrar, Prof Ishaq Oloyede said the board was trying to open a discussion with the NNPC and after due consultations, it would do something about it.

“Since we have pegged our charges at N700, they are complaining because they felt that it is practically impossible to run. 

“We are not oblivious to the situation. We are in consultation with NNPC. We want to know what the situation is and by God’s grace, when we have the appropriate advice from the NNPC, we would address the issue.

“We are appealing to our partners the CBT centres to please be patient with us and give efficient services to our people. We are not wicked; we wouldn’t want people to run at loss, but this is where we are; we would see what we can do. We would take appropriate,” he said.
