The
Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Prof.
Is-haq Oloyede, said on Tuesday the Board has remitted additional N3.6
billion to the treasury.
He said the N5.2 billion earlier sent to the treasury was not the total money the Board actually transferred to the government.
He
disclosed this during a meeting with Executives of Colleges of
Education Academic Staff Union (COESU) in his office in Bwari, Abuja.
Prof.
Oloyede said more monies generated from the sale of 2017 admission
documents were transferred, adding that the Board had so far remitted
N7.8 billion to the treasury.
He
told the colleges of education executives that applicants were allowed
to choose colleges of education as first choice institutions in the
admission forms but most of them preferred to choose universities
because the five credits requirement for admission into higher
institutions was uniform.
Earlier
the COESU National President, Nuhu Ogirima, had said the transfer of
over N5 billion to the “nation’s coffers would remain quite indelible.”
