Event Summary

The Nigeria — Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), under its newly appointed Registrar Prof. Segun Aina, resolved over 5,000 pending complaints within five days. Aina relocated his office to the Board's Nigeria — SERVICOM Unit to personally oversee the resolution process, directing desk officers to handle complaints holistically and promptly. The complaints addressed included profile code difficulties, biometric verification failures, Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS) issues, payment problems, e-PIN challenges, inappropriate examination venues, technical glitches, document upload issues, and requests for changes to personal details. The initiative is part of Aina's 'Five Enduring Pillars', specifically the 'Service at Heart' pillar, aimed at improving service delivery to candidates. The Board stated that the move underscores its commitment to placing candidates at the centre of its operations and ensuring services commensurate with fees paid.
