Many students sitting for JAMB unified tertiary matriculation examination UTME and parents have emphasized that the year CBT extermination processes will lead to mass failure.
The group of parents expressed their grievances that JAMB registrar should be blamed should students have the worst ever result this year.
Royal FM reports that the students lamented that the network failure has created a lot of concern for them as the system continues to shutdown even when that is almost done with their papers.
A student who doesn’t want her name mentioned explained that the system shutdown in forty minutes to the end of her papers. She noted that the computer took her back to the beginning of her papers. She had just forty minutes to complete all the papers from the beginning.
She explained that there is no way she will pass such an exam. The group of students however called on JAMB to reschedule them for paper examinations rather than CBT examinations.
Group of parents called on the JAMB registrar to discontinue the CBT system, noting that Nigeria’s network is not ripe for such a system. They said it will only create a mental crisis for a child that has studied day and night preparing for the exam.
They called on the National Assembly to pass a bill that will put an end to JAMB CBT in Nigeria.
Reacting to the development through an SMS to our senior correspondent Olarotimi Oshin , the JAMB registrar , Professor Is-haq Oloyede said the affected students have been rescheduled and notified.
