The National Association of Nigerian Students, NANS, has rejected the cut-off points for admission into tertiary institutions, describing the reduction as a gross misplacement of priority and exercise in futility.
NANS Vice President Olamide Odumosu, spoke at a protest by the group at the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board, JAMB, yesterday in Bwari.
Odumosu said that the reduction in the cut-off points would only lead to corruption as well as worsen the level of academic performance of students.
He added that NANS had supported the present administration in its fight against corruption, but the recent development was an act of exploitation on Nigerian students.
Odumosu added that the association would mobilize students across the 36 states, including the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, to stage a protest if nothing was done to all of their plights.
