UniAbuja replies JAMB, says only Varsities have power of admissions



The University of Abuja on Monday replied the allegation by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board that it was engaged in illegal admissions process due to failure to upload the list of its admission on Central Admissions Processing System.

The university, in a statement by its spokesman, Dr Habib Yakoob, quoted the constitutional guidelines stating that it is not outside the powers of the university to conduct admissions of our students. The statement read; “The Universities Miscellaneous Provisions, (Amendment) Act 2003 7a (ii) states that ‘The Senate shall have powers in all academic matters including the organization and control, teaching and research, admission of students; “What this means is that the university, not any external body, is guaranteed the power of admissions. The University of Abuja wishes to categorically and emphatically state that it has not conducted any illegal admissions, and has nothing to hide as far as its admission exercise is concerned.”
