Delta State Commissioner for Basic and Secondary Education, Chiedu Ebie, has
expressed displeasure over the slow pace at which candidates for the Unified
Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME, conducted by the Joint Admissions and
Matriculation Board, JAMB, were being registered at the JAMB office in Asaba.
Ebie, whose attention was caught by the
huge number of candidates, who besieged JAMB office in Asaba for registration,
noted that it would be difficult for JAMB to register a reasonable number of
candidates with what was on ground.
The commissioner, however, enjoined
candidates to go to the nearest JAMB accredited registration centre in the
state and do their registration in order to decongest the Asaba office of JAMB.
He also assured that he would personally
liaise with the state Coordinator of JAMB to explore the possibility of using
JAMB accredited centres in neighbouring towns like Ogwashi-Uku, Umunede and
Agbor to do their registration, with a view to reducing the pressure on the
Asaba centre and to, also, accelerate the registration process in the state.
