The immediate past Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Is-haq Oloyede, has reflected on his decade in office, saying the board became more transparent, technology-driven and accountable while improving staff welfare and reducing the cost of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
Mr Oloyede made the remarks on Friday during the handover ceremony to the new JAMB Registrar, Segun Aina, at the board’s headquarters in Bwari, Abuja.
Having assumed office in August 2016, Mr Oloyede completed a decade as registrar before handing over to Mr Aina. He said his administration was guided by five core priorities: welfare, discipline, technology, transparency and networking.
His predecessor, Dibu Ojerinde, who served as JAMB registrar between 2007 and 2016, is currently standing trial over multiple alleged corruption charges relating to his tenure.
