Is this a FAILURE or NOT?

The Joint Admissions and Matriculations Bord (JAMB) in the last Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination introduced the Biometric Verification System to screen candidates for the exams.

The biometric verification witnessed a huge setback in almost all the states of the federation. In some centres, the exams which was slated to start by 9.00 am commenced as late as 12.00 pm (1200 HRS). Does this mean that we (Nigerians) or JAMB are not ready for such things.

After the exams, the result released shows that over eight hundred thousand (800,000) candidates scored below 200 points. Is this what we should be having?

Now, I want to ask a question. 'Is BIOMETRIC VERIFICATION' the solution to our problem in the education system? Please, answers are required.

Not too long ago in the news. The National Examinations Council (NECO) said that 'Candidates might pay more' because it plans to introduce/use the BIOMETRIC VERIFICATION SYSTEM.

Tell me! our children, brothers, sisters are in the bad situation with little or no educational facilities in their respective schools (the so-called Government/Public schools), they are not encouraged to read. what will a dullard or someone who does not have the quality education needed to pass an exam do? I think malpractice would be an option.

We all love Nigeria but not all our leaders love us......I am not happy with this.

Here is my piece of advice for everyone, the government especially;

Let us work on the improvement of the education sector, give more incentives to teachers and encouragement. It is very clear that, when you are in a conducive environment for learning then you don't have any excuse for failure. But nowadays, students have excuses for failure.

And, one major problem. Do you know that 97% of our leaders don't allow their children to study in government schools or they even fly them abroad. Because, if their children are in the same condition with the poor masses children, then they will be forced to remember the schools.

Now I am saying: NO TO BIOMETRIC VERIFICATION SYSTEM!!! That is not the solution!!!

This is all I could say for now.....me I go talk oooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!
