Angry JAMB applicants in Maiduguri embark on a night protest over registration frustration

Over 70 angry applicants in Maiduguri on Wednesday night stormed the Nasara Computers, one of the only four registration centers in the city to protest over being registered for the upcoming Jamb examination. According to a Facebook user, Abubakar Terab, who shared the post, the students were protesting because the officials of the center were getting people who were not in the queue registered.

Abubakar also discloses that ‘the main problem is that, the only four centers are not enough for applicants in Maiduguri, as they spend days in centers before getting registered.’ He, however, called on the Borno State Government to intervene in registration challenges.

‘It is high time the Borno State Government intervened. It’s unfortunate that, time meant for studying in preparation for JAMB and other final year exams is now being spent in registration centers,’ he said.
