*JAMB INAUGURATES COMMITTEE TO OVERSEE ADMISSION OF UNDERAGE CANDIDATES*
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, on Wednesday, inaugurated a committee to oversee the process of admissions for underage candidates.
The JAMB Registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, disclosed at the sidelines of the inaugural meeting of the committee members in Bwari, FCT.
Oloyede said that the committee would decide the modalities for determining `specially gifted candidates’.
”These are the 599 underage candidates who scored 320 and above in the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.
”The committee will decide on the dates, what to do and set up who to pick at the end. They will pick candidates that are exceptionally brilliant to be admitted into tertiary schools in order to encourage them,’’ he said.
The JAMB registrar noted that the committee meeting had the virtual presence of Vice Chancellors of Nigerian universities, regulatory agencies, some critical stakeholders and experts in education.
He added that the committee had resolved that between now and September those who would scale the hurdle from the 599 candidates would be announced.
“Their school certificates will be weighed, which means they must have scored 80 per cent, and for the post-UTME, the institution will submit the scores of the candidates, latest by Sept. 16.
“Any candidate who scores below 80 in the post-UTME is already out of it.
“We know that 16 years is the minimum for admissions but we should be able to pick one or two that are very brilliant to encourage them,” he said.
He added that the panel would sit in Lagos, Abuja and Owerri.
Oloyede urged parents to desist from desperation to send their children and wards at tender ages into tertiary institutions, saying that children needed time to develop naturally and mature.
He also cautioned against bribery to gain admission, saying that it was an anomaly to introduce the younger generation into the world of crime.
The registrar assured that the process for the admissions would be transparent and fair due to the quality of the committee members.0 Comments 0 Shares 99 Views 0 Reviews1

The Sound of Miss Bella’s Heels,The Ghost School Teacher
Episode 8: March of the Dead
After Chuka’s death in the chapel, Dawnlight Boarding School became a ghost town — not because people left, but because no one spoke anymore.
Students whispered prayers.
Teachers looked over their shoulders.
Even the principal, Mr. Osakwe, walked with a Bible tucked under his armpit.
But none of it mattered.
Because that night, something different happened.
The sound came again.
> Kpakpa… kpakpa… kpakpa…
But this time… it didn’t stay in the corridors.
It didn’t pass quietly.
It came outside.
It was a moonless night.
3:00 a.m.
The security guard on duty, Mallam Idris, heard the noise first.
He saw the front gate rattle.
The trees sway.
And then… the ground shook faintly as the kpakpa sound grew louder.
He turned his flashlight toward the assembly ground — and dropped it.
There, marching across the empty field, was the most terrifying sight anyone had ever seen:
A figure in a torn red dress, cane in hand, blood on her chest, walking with red high heels that didn’t touch the ground — they hovered inches above it.
But behind her…
Were the faint, shadowy forms of Promise, Ejiro, and Chuka.
Their bodies twisted.
Eyes empty.
They marched behind her like puppets of the dead.
Mallam Idris screamed and ran, throwing his radio away.
But before he reached the dorm gate, he turned and saw something that made him urinate on himself:
Miss Bella’s ghost stopped…
…turned toward him…
…and smiled.
> “I’m still taking attendance,” she whispered.
And disappeared.
By morning, Idris had gone mad.
He was found hiding under the water tank, chanting:
> “Kpakpa… kpakpa… class is not over…”
The principal tried to keep the incident quiet, again.
But this time?
Even the teachers started requesting transfers.
The kitchen staff quit.
Two female students collapsed after seeing bloody footprints in their food tray line.
And then came the final blow…
In the middle of morning assembly — in broad daylight — every student, teacher, and prefect heard it:
> Kpakpa… kpakpa… kpakpa…
The sound of red heels walking across the assembly field.
No one was there.
But they all heard it.
And then… on the chalkboard behind them… appeared in red:
> "CLASS IS IN SESSION. – Miss Bella."
