A leader of students who protested on Wednesday against the workings of the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB), which randomly allocates candidates to separate institutions, has alleged that the program’s registrar, Professor Dibu Ojerinde, has an agreement with private universities to selectively divert candidates to them against the will of the applicants themselves. (pictured above) Dotun Sodunke accused the JAMB registrar of being paid to favor private universities The bold allegation came from Dotun Sodunke, the President of the Association of Tutorial Center Operators (ATCO).
Speaking to journalists at the protest, which took place on the campus of University of Lagos (UNILAG), Mr. Sodunke emphasized that private universities paid Professor Ojerinde to help them divert candidates from the last JAMB tests for them to have student populations in their less patronized institutions.
