The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has refuted allegations that it plays any role in the admission process for Higher National Diploma (HND) students.
In a statement released by Fabian Benjamin, JAMB’s spokesperson, the board clarified that it has no involvement, authority, or control over the admissions of HND candidates. The statement emphasized that JAMB’s responsibilities do not extend to the admission processes of higher institutions beyond its regular admissions.
The board further asserted that HND admissions fall outside its mandate and are irrelevant to its operations.
This clarification comes after some HND students accused JAMB of being responsible for their inability to participate in the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) program. The students claimed they were not mobilized for service because they completed their National Diploma (ND) through part-time programs.
