RECTEM promotes transparency at summit

The Redeemer’s College of Technology and Management has hosted the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board and admission officers of both public and private institutions in Ogun State at a one-day conference to proffer solutions to challenges facing admission officers of the institutions.

RECTEM noted that the one-day conference themed, “Towards doing admissions right in Nigeria’s institution”, aimed at promoting admission integrity in tertiary institutions in Ogun State, was held recently at Mowe, Ogun State.

In her opening remark, the Rector of RECTEM, Dr Stella Mofunanya, noted that the job of getting admission right in tertiary institutions should not be left to authorities alone but the responsibility of all.

She mentioned that admission officers should complement the transparency and accountability the parent body was entrenching in the admission process.

Mofunanya said, “Making admissions right is our collective responsibility, and I believe that the JAMB coordinator of our beloved Ogun State could not wait any longer for this event to be held. Ecclesiastes 9:10 encourages all to do what our hands find to do diligently.”

Also, the JAMB Coordinator, Ogun State, Abdulhameed Abdulhakeem, noted that it was the responsibility of his office to domesticate the concerns of the parent body as it strived to make admission-related issues seamless and error-free.

Abdulhakeem said, “We will no longer tolerate admission malpractices. All admissions must be on CAPS. We have automated all our services, and institutions that fail to comply will face severe sanctions from the Minister of Education.

“All admissions that are not on the Central Admission Processing System are illegal.

“So, to prevent candidates from doing all these things, a grace of a month was given to institutions to compile all other undisclosed and disclose it and see how best it can be resolved.”
