ASUU wants JAMB scrapped because lecturers are “out of business” – Coalition. Finally the power tussle between JAMB and ASUU still continues.

The comedy between ASUU and JAMB may not be coming to an end any moment as JAMB actually fired back at ASUU. You will recall that ASUU has called for the Scrapping of JAMB and this does not sound good in the ears of the officials of JAMB.

The Joint Action Coalition of Civil Society Organization for Transparency in Governance has ​called on Nigerians to ignore those “out of business” calling for scrap of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) ​and supporton-going ​re​​forms by the exam body.​

Sabo Odeh​, ​Executive Director of the coalition​ said this on Sunday, while reacting to recent call by Academic Staff Union of Universities, (ASUU) for the scrapping of JAMB​.​

​Recall that ​Chairman, ​ASUU -​ University of Ibadan Chapter​ – ​Dr. Deji Omole​ ​​as​ked ​JAMB​​ Registrar​, ​Professor Ishaq Oloyede to ​r​esign ​over allegedlopsided nature of the JAMB registration​.​

Odeh ​said​ the reforms introduced by JAMB into admission process in Nigeria appears to have taken many members of ASUU engaged in admission racketeering out of business and they are not happy.

He said, “If ASUU is allowed to dictate how JAMB does it work, it is a matter of time before the lecturers set their sight on WAEC, Secondary and even primary schools.

“The clamour by ASUU that each university should be allowed to handle its own admission processes is an open call to empower these admission syndicates operated by no other persons but ASUU members.
