Activist Aisha Yesufu has condemned the 2025 UTME technical failures and called for the Education Minister’s removal, following JAMB’s public admission of the exam glitches in Lagos and the South-East.
- JAMB Registrar Ishaq Oloyede admitted to technical hitches during UTME, causing widespread failures in specific regions.
- Yesufu criticized the Federal Government, saying a “real President” would have fired the Minister immediately.
- The exam body has promised remediation for affected candidates, including rescheduling or re-marking of scripts.
For many candidates and families in Lagos and the South-East, the unexpected failure felt like a personal betrayal. Parents have taken to social media to express fears that their children’s academic paths are now in jeopardy, despite months of preparation.
As calls for accountability mount, will the Federal Government respond with meaningful reforms in education oversight or continue with business as usual?
