Varsity founder condemns NECO result rejection
The Founder and President of Atiba University, Oyo State, James Ojebode, has condemned the alleged refusal of some federal universities to accept the recently released National Examinations Council results from admission seekers.
In a statement on Friday, Ojebode described the development as, “unjust, discriminatory, and inconsistent with the country’s commitment to inclusive and equitable education.”
He lamented that many candidates who applied for admission using ‘Awaiting Results’ were later denied entry after NECO released their results.
Ojebode also described the situation as “a denial of the fundamental right to education and a reflection of administrative insensitivity.”
The varsity founder urged the Federal Ministry of Education, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, and NECO to take immediate action to address the issue.
