The dismissal of Prof Dibu Ojerinde as the JAMB Registrar along side 16 other
Chief Executives of some parastatals and agencies in the Ministry of Education came as a surprise to many.

Though the Ministry of Education did not make known the reasons behind the sack, however, going by the gross irregularities that marred the conduct of the last UTME and the ongoing 2016 admission process, the reason for the sack of the former JAMB boss whose tenure was suppose to end April 2017 may not be far-fetched.

It will be recalled that in the light of the irregularities, that marred the conduct of 2016 UTME, many Nigerians seems to have lost fate in Prof. Dibu and consequently were calling for his sack, resignation and the scrapping of JAMB.

Now with Prof Dibu gone, will the new JAMB Boss bring the level of transparency and standard Nigerians expect to see in the admission process into our tertiary institutions? we will wait to see.
