JAMB also addressed an issue with unauthorized restrictions imposed on candidates wearing hijabs at one of the centres, stating that swift action has been taken to address the unilateral decision.
“We extend our sincere apologies to the affected candidates and commend the leadership of both the centre and the university for their prompt intervention, which ensured that no candidate suffered undue disadvantage,” the statement added.
