Ishaq Oloyede, registrar of the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB), says some tertiary institutions in Nigeria were found to have illegally admitted candidates as young as 10 and 12. https://www.thecable.ng/extra-some-varsities-were-admitting-10-year-olds-says-oloyede-on-new-age-limit/amp/ 9 Likes 2 Shares

Even if true, how does it justify moving admission age up? Deal with defaulters of existing law and stop punishing the whole country for the offence of few people. 41 Likes 3 Shares |

Standing5:none that i know about. I don't see anything bad in having youngsters on campus. Some people have very high IQ. The only way they might encounter problems is dealing with situations that require a certain level of EQ,SQ and AQ which they might not have enough as at when they entered the tertiary institution. They will cope if they reside with parents/guardians but staying alone in a university environment, its a no-no. My said coursemate lived with her parents all through her university days. 26 Likes 1 Share |

advanceDNA: He did a video. Showed all his proof and even mentioned the case where Erasmus scholarship in Europe had to reach out to them one one occasion. Don’t sit on Nairaland and condemn his statement with just the headline. Man even said Jamb already started putting a note on original result that shows if the owner updated his age at any time and etc. I also don’t agree to the 18years age benchmark. 66 Likes 4 Shares |

Lol. A dirty liar. Exaggeration too much. That 18 years rule is stupid. 15 is fine. We have impromptu ASUU strike in Nigeria. Many of the top guys in my OAU set that graduated with first class entered at the age of 15/16. Some even 14 . And they are doing fine in their careers today. 17 Likes 2 Shares |

I don't think this is true. University admitted 10 year Olds. Prof, you can say the truth about below 18 admissions in the country without overstating it. When you overstate the truth, it becomes a lie which this one is. 10 Likes 1 Share |

I don't believe this man. No way any parent will send a 10 years old to a uni in Nigeria. Unless you want that child to be Maltreated by other students. 15 or 16 years I'll believe but 10? No way. The case he cited... it is more likely that the student was trying to game the system by reducing his age. 8 Likes 1 Share |

It should be the prerogative of universities to admit any person who passes JAMB exams. JAMB is an exams body, not the registrar of universities. 3 Likes |

The limit was 16 before. Why increase it. Most people are with secondary school between 16 - 17. Now they have to wait? |
