How Two Service Providers That Did Not Do Well By Uploading Improperly Messed Up UTME 2025 – Prof Is-haq Oloyede
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Lagos State University (LASU) has commended the Registrar of Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Prof. Is-haq Oloyede, for demonstrating accountability in the conduct and outcomes of the 2025 UTME .

The university gave the commendation in a statement on Thursday.

LASU urged Nigerians to see the events surrounding the conduct of this year’s Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) not as a failure on the part of JAMB but as an opportunity to further strengthen the examination systems.

LASU then urged Nigerians to continue to support Professor Oloyede in the statement issued by its Deputy Registrar and Coordinator, Centre for Information and Public Relations, Mrs Oluwayemisi Thomas-Onashile.

“The events surrounding the conduct and outcome of the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) have rightly sparked public concern among well-meaning Nigerians.

“However, the candid admission of technical failures that affected the examination and Oloyede’s decision to take full responsibility for the setback are precisely why LASU expresses its unwavering support for the JAMB registrar,” she said.S

Thomas-Onashile recalled that Oloyede had, at a news conference on May 14, stood before the country and done what most public officers holders would never do.

“He took full responsibility for the technical glitch and human errors that affected the results of 379,997 candidates who wrote the examination across five states in Lagos and the South-East, thus invalidating the results.

“In the press conference, which is marked by courage and humility rather than deflecting blame, Prof. Oloyede took full responsibility and immediately ordered a retake examination for all the affected candidates to restore confidence in the process.

“LASU stands solidly with Prof. Oloyede, affirming not only his courage and humility in this testing time but also, the depth of character cum integrity.

“The depth of character cum integrity has become the hallmark of his glittering career as a public servant,” she said.

The LASU spokesperson further stated that Oloyede’s decision to subject the process to an internal technical review and admit shortcomings was reflection of his exceptional character.

Part of the statement reads thus : “It demonstrates the kind of leadership that is scarce in the Nigerian public space.

“In fact, since taking office in 2016, Prof. Oloyede has transformed JAMB through comprehensive reforms that have significantly improved examination credibility and transparency.

“He has increased public confidence in the examination body, attracting plaudits from far and near.

“LASU has benefitted immensely from the enhanced processes of JAMB, leading to the admission of better qualified candidates in our university,” she said.

Thomas-Onashile added that the JAMB registrar’s track record, dating back to his tenure as Vice-Chancellor of University of Ilorin, had consistently showed commitment to excellence and integrity.

“We, therefore, urge Nigerians to see this development, not as a failure but as an opportunity to strengthen our examination systems further.

“We believe that supporting leaders who demonstrate accountability, rather than condemning them for isolated shortcomings, is essential for Nigeria’s progress.

“May the Nigerian education family continue to make progress,” she prayed. (vitalnewsngr.com)
