Jamb Registrar Alleges That Candidates Changed Birthdates Totaling N400 Million To Qualify For NYSC

The Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Prof. Is-haq Oloyede, has said the organization generated N400 million from change of birth dates by applicants in his first year in office.





The registrar told The Nation Newspaper that people were coming to change their dates of birth on JAMB portal in order to meet the requirements to participate in the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).


The JAMB boss stated this in a presentation he made at the 2021 Batch ‘A’ pre-mobilisation workshop of the NYSC for institutions and other stakeholders in Abuja

 “In my first year as registrar, we collected over N400 million from people who wanted to change their dates of birth. I was wondering why they wanted to change their dates of birth. We are not looking for owo eje (blood money) and that was why we put strict instruction.


“If you want to change anything, you must show reasons. That is why change of names and birthdays are going down now because they know that it is not going to be easy. We look at the primary school certificate. The best way to know a criminal is that he or she doesn’t have primary school certificate.



Oloyede was appointed JAMB Registrar in July 2016.

    That's the only way for them to serve since going for nysc has age limit.

  3. The NYSC age limit should be cancelled and service made optional for those above age 30.
