Technical hitches at CBT centres cannot be blamed on JAMB whose headquarters is far away. They should blame the CBT centres. The law establishing JAMB may stomach vicarious liability, but the technical nitty gritties will still favour the cat jumping into JAMB\u2019s backyard.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;MURIC advises candidates who failed the examination to lick their wounds, re-examine themselves, throw their hats into the ring once again and stop blaming JAMB. It behoves the parents to stop indulging their children. The future belongs to youths who toil hard and prepare themselves for the challenges of this jet age, not to overpampered ones whose mothers still breastfeed them at 25.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We charge parents to join hands with JAMB and the Nigerian authorities in cleansing the system already permeated with moral decadence. JAMB is not the enemy of those candidates, the parents who fail to discipline them and the permissive society which idolises indolence and demonises dilligence are their foes. Lick your wounds, leave JAMB alone,&#8221; MURIC stated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; As some parents and candidates vowed to sue the Joint Admissions and Matriculations Board (JAMB) over the mass failure registered in the 2025 JAMB examination, the Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has advised both the candidates and their parents to lick their wounds and stop blaming the board for their failures.
