The decision comes amidst challenges faced by candidates navigating security screening measures aimed at curbing the prevalence of fake A’level certificates. JAMB acknowledges the inconvenience caused and assures prospective Direct Entry candidates of a more streamlined registration process in the future.
Nevertheless, JAMB remains steadfast in its commitment to preventing individuals with fraudulently obtained certificates from gaining an unfair advantage. Candidates whose certificate-issuing institutions are yet to verify their credentials will be unable to register until this verification process is completed.
