The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has offered to support the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) with biometric verification technology.

INEC Chairman, Joash Amupitan, a professor, made the offer on Friday during a courtesy visit by JAMB Registrar, Segun Aina, and his management team.

Mr Amupitan praised JAMB’s statutory responsibilities, describing the board as vital to national development and the progress of Nigerian youth.

He noted that INEC’s recent elections showcased its increasing technological capacity, citing the Anambra and Ekiti governorship elections.

He also referenced the Osun governorship election, the FCT Area Council election, and various by-elections held nationwide.
