The Academic Staff Union of Polytechnic (ASUP) has faulted the Presidency’s cancellation of the Post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) conducted by tertiary institutions for candidates offered admission into universities, polytechnics and colleges of education in the country.
The ASUP South West Zonal Co-ordinator, Prince Olawale Adetunji in an interview with RockCity FM in Abeokuta, said the cancellation would worsen the decay in the nation’s education sector.
He said the Presidency was not realistic with the stoppage of the post UTME exams, because over 70 percent of candidates offered admission into tertiary institutions through the UTME conducted by the Joint Admission Matriculation Board (JAMB) were aided to pass the exams.
