The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has clarified its position regarding recent claims made by some Higher National Diploma (HND) graduates castigating it for their inability to participate in the mandatory one-year National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).

The Board said it has no involvement, authority, or control over the admissions process for HND candidates.

In a press statement on Monday, JAMB Spokesperson Dr Fabian Benjamin said the candidates claimed they did HND full-time but were not mobilised because they did OND part-time.

“How on earth does that concern JAMB when Section 5(2) of the law that established JAMB states that,

“For the avoidance of doubt, the Board shall be responsible for determining matriculation requirements and conducting examinations leading to undergraduate admissions, as well as for admissions to National Diploma and Nigerian Certificate in Education courses.

“However, the Board shall not be responsible for examinations or any other selective processes for postgraduate courses or any other courses offered by tertiary institutions,” the statement said.
According to JAMB, most students were reported to have been admitted into their institution for the National Diploma (ND) without the Board’s knowledge.

“With this, the Board graciously condoned and endorsed the said admission for the ND programme, and that was the only relationship with such candidates.

“Their subsequent admission to HND is unknown and irrelevant to the mandate of the Board. Accusing the Board of issues it has no mandate is preposterous.

Some of these candidates have crossed the lines of criminality, which the Board will address appropriately soon.”

It further urged the public to disregard the accusations against the Board as it has no mandate on such matters.
