JAMB Cannot Admit Nigerian Students Under The Age Of 18 Henceforth – Prof. Tahir Mamman

The Minister of Education, Prof. Tahir Mamman has come out to announce a ban on admissions for candidates under the age of 18 into tertiary institutions in the country.

He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, JAMB must know that underaged students can no longer be admitted into our universities because they are deemed too young for the rigours of that standard of learning.

He added that only students 18 years and above will be considered eligible for admission into universities and other tertiary institutions of learning henceforth.

His words, “JAMB is hereby notified that there is now a ban on underaged students, those under the age of 18 into our tertiary institutions from this 2024 admissions.”

WOW.
