JAMB has enabled the portal for candidates who took part in the 2020 UTME to check their results. If you have taken part in the 2020 UTME, you can proceed to check your results. We believe the results are released 2 to 3 days after the exams. So we advise all candidates to check their results 2 to 3 days after their exams. We have provided details for candidates to check their results online. See details below;

success

As the much anticipated 2020 JAMB UTME commences tomorrow March 14th, we believed that candidates should be stirred up towards a successful examination. We really hope you’ve been studying and your mind is well prepared for the task ahead.

Because we never hesitate to support and encourage our students in their aspirations, we have created a list of things you should do the day before your exam

1. Eat Good Food

Make an effort to eat a decent meal. It’ll make you feel happy and give you a boost that’ll get you ready for the next day.

2. Sleep on Time

Avoid going to bed late the night before the exam so you can give your brain time to rest. The few moments before you go to bed is a wonderful time for memorisation. Learning before you sleep helps improve retention but be sure not to overdo it. Don’t read overnight into the day of your examination. Go to bed early, your brain needs to rest for optimum performance during the exam.

3. Prepare to Wake up on Time

Set as many alarms as possible to ensure you wake up on time. You can get a sibling, parent or any family member to wake you up too, if you’re still worried about over-sleeping. Just make sure you get to the exam on time.

On the day of the exam;
Get There Early

We hope you’re familiar with your exam centre by now, as we had earlier advised. If not, be sure to locate your centre today, before your exam. Get to your examination centre on time. Do all you can to be at your venue 30 minutes before your exam.
Don’t Drink Too Much Water

Don’t drink too much water, just a little will be fine. Don’t worry about Dehydration, it is not going to be a problem during the exam, but drinking too much water and needing to go to the toilet every five minutes is.
Avoid going to the exam with any of the JAMB prohibited Items

We earlier published a list of items you should not take to the exam hall. Please check the list on this link: JAMB List of Prohibited Items For 2020 UTME Candidates During The Exam

When you get to the UTME exam centre;
Ensure that your Biometric Verification is done. This is very important. If it is not done, you should ask for it.
When in the exam room, sit comfortably and spread out. It’s proven that when we physically make ourselves larger, by spreading our arms or leaning back on the chair, this releases a type of hormone which makes you more confident.
Read and follow instructions carefully.
Start with a subject you’re strong in. Don’t waste time on difficult questions, move to the next.
Attempt all questions.
All the Best! You’ll do great.

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) and Federal Government has reached an agreement to integrate the University Transparency and Accountability Solution (UTAS) into the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS). following the meeting between the two parties yesterday.

The IPPIS is the government’s accountability software that has been made compulsory for all public institutions, mainly for personnel payroll. ASUU is opposed to the use of IPPIS for lecturers saying it does not consider some of the peculiar operations of universities. The lecturers’ union then developed its own UTAS which it wants the government to adopt for universities.

The outcome of the meeting was made known by the Minister of Labour and Productivity, Chris Ngige, after a four-hour meeting between both parties.

Mr Ngige said the two parties will reconvene on Monday after the ASUU delegation deliberates with its National Executive Council (NEC).

When contacted, the National President of ASUU, Biodun Ogunyemi, said the National Executive Committee of the union will review the conditions for the integration of UTAS into IPPIS.

“From the discussion we had, we have agreed that we will go and consult. We cannot pronounce on the proposals that came up until we consult with our members. We will leave it there for now.” He stated.

When asked if the strike would be suspended, the ASUU president said he could not make any pronouncement until he consulted with other members.

LASU Part-time Admission List for 2019/2020 session has been released. Candidates who applied for admission in the part-time programme of the university for 2019/2020 session can proceed to check if they have been offered admission.

The names of admitted candidates have been made available online by the management of the university.

The general function of the Union is to foster and manage the athletic, social and cultural interests of students and provide a forum for any other activities of the Union.

Some pupils of a primary school in Abuja have gone viral on social media with their campaign strategy for their school’s Student Union Government election.

Twitter user, Brian who shared photos of the pupils’ campaign banners revealed that one of the prospective candidates bought a water dispenser for the school, while another pupil took the campaign to a radio station

Sharing the photos, he wrote ;
This is a primary school SUG election campaign in Abuja

One parent bought extra water dispenser for all the classes as part of campaign strategy.

Another went to radio to campaign.
Today is their manifesto.

This is to notify All newly admitted students of Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) who had paid their ACCEPTANCE FEES before payment was discontinued,that they should submit their ACCEPTANCE FEE REFUND REQUEST at their respective departments where they will be collated and subsequently delivered to the University Bursary for processing.

National President of the union Biodun Ogunyemi made the declaration after ASUU National Executive Council meeting in Enugu. NEC resolved to embark on two weeks warning strike action with effect from Monday 9th March 2020, to compel the Government to implement the agreement and resolution,” Ogunyemi said.

This was made know by the National President of ASUU Professor Biodun Ogunyemi at the end of the National Executive Council meeting(NEC) held at the Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUT).

It was also gathered that the warning strike is equally connected to the decision of the federal government to stop salaries of lecturers who have not enrolled in the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS).

A student of Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, identified as Oboh Emmanuel has reportedly ended his life yesterday 24th of February, 2020.

According to reports gathered by Caampusinfo. The student,popularly known among his peers as “biggy”,drank a poisonous substance to put an end to his life because of reasons related to academics.

It is worthy of note that Oboh Emmanuel is the third OAU student to commit suicide in the space of just twelve months. We at Campusinfo sympathize with his family, friends and the general OAU community. We enjoin students not to think about suicide as an option at all , it isn’t a way out of depression, instead, they should consult trained personnels in guidance and counselling, psychotherapy and psychology fields . We pray God grants the Emmanuel’s parents the fortitude to bear the loss.
