The reform statement was wrongly interpreted by many online users as evidence that the Federal Government had abolished JAMB\u2019s role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How the Misinformation Started<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The October 13 press release outlined updates to admission requirements across tertiary institutions, adjusting subject combinations and minimum credit passes to promote access and equity. However, while the reforms sought to make entry requirements more flexible, they did not remove JAMB\u2019s statutory role in conducting entrance examinations and coordinating admissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Misinterpretations of the statement quickly spread across social media platforms, fueling claims that students would no longer need to sit for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) to gain admission into universities and other higher institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Ministry\u2019s Official Clarification<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a follow-up press release dated October 16, 2025, the Honourable Minister of Education, Dr. Maruf Tunji Alausa, categorically debunked the circulating reports, describing them as \u201cfalse, misleading, and unfounded.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">\u00a0\u201cJAMB remains the sole statutory body legally empowered to conduct entrance examinations and coordinate admissions into all tertiary institutions in Nigeria,\u201d Dr. Alausa stated.<\/mark><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u00a0\u201cThe Ministry has not issued any policy or directive discontinuing JAMB\u2019s role. The admission process through JAMB remains fully operational.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The minister reaffirmed the government\u2019s commitment to transparency, merit, and due process in the education sector, urging the public, especially prospective students and parents to rely only on official government channels for verified information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Clarification on the Reforms<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the ministry, the October 13 reforms were introduced to streamline admission processes and ensure fairness without lowering academic standards. The adjustments focused on subject combinations and credit pass requirements but retained JAMB-administered examinations as a central component of tertiary admission procedures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All claims suggesting that the Federal Government has scrapped JAMB\u2019s role in tertiary admissions are false. The Ministry of Education emphasized that JAMB remains fully functional and authorized to manage the admission process across Nigeria\u2019s universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">\u00a0\u201cThe public should disregard unfounded reports and continue to obtain accurate updates from the Ministry of Education and JAMB\u2019s official platforms,\u201d the statement concluded. Verdict: False!<\/mark><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The claim that the Federal Government has abolished JAMB as a requirement for tertiary admissions is false. The confusion arose from a misinterpretation of the Ministry\u2019s October 13 press release on admission reforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Click to download the PDF of the <a href=\"https:\/\/giftconsult.com.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/FAKE-NEWS-ALERT.pdf\">Fake-News-Alert<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Federal Ministry of Education has dismissed viral social media claims alleging that the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has been scrapped as a requirement for admission into Nigerian tertiary institutions.
