JAMB Poor internet is to be blamed for mass failure

In Kano, an NGO, Centre for Information Technology and Development (CITAD), has said that the disappointing results from students during the recent Joint Examination and Matriculation Board test is due to poor internet service in the country.

Executive Director of the organisation, Alhaji Yunusa Ya’u said, “Slow speed has many implications, one of which was recently seen during this year’s JAMB CBT examination.

“As candidates are auto-timed to respond to questions, a slow Internet means that even before student was able to load question, his or her time was off and therefore scored zero for that question,” he said
