2020 – 2021 UNDERGRADUATE REGISTRATION CHARGES

While many young Nigerians yearly seek admission to tertiary institutions to further their education and are denied the opportunity, in what looks like a paradox, thousands of admission spaces are lying unfilled in those institutions for various reasons.

Among the reasons are the lack of interest by applicants in some courses, false impression given by institutions when their courses are being accredited by relevant bodies, lack of facilities, teachers among others.

For instance, for the 2020 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME, and the admission process conducted by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, universities in the country have 179,330 admission spaces yet to be filled as of the end of August this year, according to a document that emanated from the recent Policy Meeting held by JAMB.

The universities, federal, state, and private, were given 601, 775 spaces to fill but have so far filled 422,453 spaces.

The Polytechnics in the country were given 115,243 spaces to fill but managed to get 79,891 filled, while the Colleges of Education had 235,240 admission slots on offer but got 47, 920 used leaving a huge gap of 187,320 unused.

Monotechnics that award NID certificate also had 4,870 spaces but filled only 1,257.

The institutions are given admission slots after their courses are accredited by bodies such as the National Universities Commission, NUC, the National Board for Technical Education, NBTE, the National Commission for Colleges of Education, NCCE, in conjunction with some professional bodies as the case might be.

In all, the institutions had 925,762 possible admission spaces but filled 551,553, leaving a gap of 405,256.

At the University level, federal universities had 259, 292 admission spaces in 2020, but filled 222,240, state-owned universities had 221,545, but filled 163,824 and private universities got 120,938 but only 36,381 were filled.

At the polytechnic level, federal polytechnics got 51,663 and filled 41,128, state polys got 51, 620 and filled 35,822, while private ones had 11, 960 and filled 2,941.

Institutions also performed at different levels in meeting their admission quotas as shown in the document.

The University of Ilorin, Kwara State which was given 13,563 slots in 2020, eventually admitted 13, 634 or 100.25 percent, the University of Benin, Edo State was given 12, 584 spaces to fill and filled 12, 336 or 98.03 percent, the University of Calabar, Cross River State got 10, 261 slots and filled 10,888 or 106.11 percent.

Ekiti State University, Ado-Ekiti got 7,898 as quota and admitted 8,088 or 102.29 per cent and Federal University, Oye-Ekiti also got 8,029 as quota and filled 8,110 spaces or 101.01 per cent.

It was also found out that preference for some courses by admission seekers also led to the vacant spaces in some cases.

The most sought courses are in Medicine/Pharmacy/ Health Sciences where 452,196 applied for admission in the year under review.

Out of the figure, only 36,821 were admitted even though the available spaces were 43,717.

Social Sciences had 379, 135 applicants and only 66, 228 were admitted when the admission quota was 93,277.

Faculties of Education in Nigerian universities had the capacity to admit 111, 601 candidates, but only 95, 317 applied out of which 80, 857 were admitted.

The management of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has released some stringent safety measures as part of efforts to limit the spread of coronavirus infections in the orientation camps across the country.

The organisation, in a statement signed by its director of press, Adenike Adeyemi, and obtained by Premium Times on Thursday, said prospective corp members (PCM) must undergo compulsory COVID- 19 test before entering the camp.

She said only those who tested negative would be admitted for the orientation course.

“RDT is administered on all camp officials and prospective corps members before entrance into the camps and only PCMs and officials that test negative are allowed into the camps,” she said.

The 2021 Batch ‘B’ Stream II Orientation Course commenced on Wednesday, September 1, 2021.

Mrs Adeyemi said the number of participants allowed into camps across the country has been reduced to ensure enough room for physical distancing.

She said prospective corps members will resume orientation courses in batches over a period of five days in order to avoid the crowd during registration.

“Measures put in place by NYSC management to ensure safe camp reopening include an excellent partnership with Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) over the last year.

Presence of NCDC surveillance team and state health officials on NYSC camps nationwide, testing of all visitors and non-camp officials entering the camp premises, ” she said.

She also said camp officials whose results are “reactive or positive” will be taken over by the NCDC surveillance team on camp.

The spokesperson noted that fumigation and decontamination of all NYSC camps will be carried out before the commencement of any orientation exercise.

Other measures include hand washing locations available at strategic locations within the camps, and that information, education and communication materials are freely distributed to educate and sensitise all on adherence to guidelines on COVID-19 prevention.

She added; “Two-metre bed spacing with adequate ventilation is ensured in all camps. Fumigation and decontamination of all camps are done before the commencement of any orientation exercise.

With the above and compliance with all non-pharmaceutical interventions, NYSC has put in place adequate measures towards the safe re-opening of orientation camps for the 2031 Batch ‘B’ stream 11 orientation course.”

In preparation for the generation of matriculation list for newly admitted students, the Academic Support

Services (Exams and Records) has commenced the compilation of list of students who had previously

matriculated to ensure that such students are not given double matriculation number.

To this end, you are requested to liaise with level advisers in your Faculty to ensure that students who had previously matriculated but have secured new admission should so indicate by completing the exemption from double matriculation form (copy attached) and forward same to the undersigned on or before Thursday, 9 September, 2021.

Thank you.

A graduate of the University of Uyo, simply identified as Kubiat was allegedly arrested and beaten to death by men of the Nigerian police force, (B division, Ewet Housing estate) in Akwa Ibom state.

According to one Christiana Sunday who shared the story on Facebook, the deceased student who was preparing to go for NYSC by November 2021, was arrested by the police at Eni stores at about 7 pm on Sunday, August 29, and was accused of armed robbery.

Kubiat who is said to be the only son of his aged parents was allegedly taken to the police station where he was tortured to death the same night of his arrest.

His friends who heard of his arrest were said to have gone in search of him in various police stations but were told that they had no record of such arrest. His body was eventually found at the Ikot Akpan police headquarters mortuary after his aunt put a call across to some government officials who used their affluence to ascertain his whereabouts.

The police reportedly found out they had arrested the wrong person after beating him to death and proceeded to deposit his body at the mortuary.
