THE Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has denounced claims that it is involved in the admission process for Higher National Diploma (HND) students.
According to media reports, a statement signed by the Spokesman of the Board, Fabian Benjamin, stated that the Board has no involvement, authority, or control over the admissions process for HND candidates.
The statement added that JAMB is also not responsible for other higher institutions’ programmes besides their regular admissions.
The Board further added that candidates’ HND admissions are unknown and irrelevant to the mandate of JAMB.
Recall that some HND students had earlier accused the board of being responsible for their inability to go for their National Youth Service scheme (NYSC).
The students were said to have claimed they were not mobilised for service because they did a part-time programme for their National Diploma (ND).
