Honestly *the person who wrote this piece “Injustice to one is injustice to all” is completely ignorant of the process of admission in Ahmadu Bello University Zaria,* For those of us that wrote Jamb 3 times passed all and failed to secure admission whom also are from the catchment area of the University felt the same way but later got to understand the process & how it works! There are some unique facts about ABU that we must appreciate which includes among so many others; ABU is the most cosmopolitan University in the whole of Africa not even Nigeria �� it’s no news that ABU Zr has students from each and every of the 774 local governments in �� which makes it a mini ��. When it comes to teaching staff, ABU is the only record holder of having atleast 1 senior staff from each and every of the 36 states in Nigeria and it has remained so till date. So in essence not even the University of Abuja that is in the heart of Nigeria can boast of having students from all the 774 local governments or a staff from each of the 36 states in the Country. Then we should be proud of ABU Zr. I can personally attest to the fact that in each and every Departmental admission guideline clearly spells out three criteria’s and is religiously adhered to which includes: 1. Merrit list 45% of the total students admitted to the dept (Atleast 2 to 3 students with the highest score from each state). 2. Catchment area list 35% (like any other university in Nigeria ABU considers students from its selected States as it catchment area). & 3. Less Educationally developed states list 20% (in other to give candidates in some selected states that are not as educationally developed as the others a chance to be in ABU as they are at a disadvantage and cannot stand their colleagues from the opposite side) which makes 100% for each department and in doing this no state is left out. Please tell me which other University in Nigeria can say same of their institution? I’ll tell U the answer for free “NONE”. As regards the case of one *Goodness Thomas, she would have made it for the MBBS Merit list from her state but unfortunately she was number 7 on the list in terms of jamb score from Niger state* and only the first two were picked as it is in d case with all other 36 states and the FCT, she also wouldn’t have made it for the 2nd & 3rd criteria for admission as the number from the Medical and Dental Board limits ABU MBBS to only 120students per session so please do the maths how would U have admitted Goodness into MBBS and justify it even if U are on the admissions committee? It is also important that I call the attention of the writer of this mischievous piece, that Goodness Thomas was quick to change her 1st choice to ‘Anatomy’ from MBBS seeing she didn’t make the 1st list and she was admitted in the 2nd list of admission which she accepted gladly and quickly, so why are people been mischievous and sharing very wrong information on social media? I have seen the list of about 25 candidates this year alone from Kwara, Benue and Kogi states who scored above 300 and didn’t make the list for MBBS but unfortunately their representatives don’t have social media handles to speak out on their behalf. This year alone ABU received more than 40,000 qualified candidates which is the largest number of applicants for any university in Nigeria and Jamb gave ABU the clearance to take in 11,000 candidates which is also the highest number any university is taking in this year, so who will speak for the over 29,000 qualified candidates? Even ASUU is crying that accademic staff are over stretched due to the number of lecturer to student at the moment. As it stands, ABU is among the 1st generation of universities in Nigeria and there has been plans from the management under the leadership of Prof. Ibrahim Garba with support from the Nigerian Universities Commission (NUC) and the Ministry of Education for ABU Zr to Migrate into a fully pledged Post-Graduate University and that can only happen if the number of undergraduates intake is cut by more than half the number its currently taking in. So please let’s call all mischief makers to order and if anyone has any issue on admission of a candidate to write to the University rather than embarking on campaign of calmuny on social media to dent the reputation of a University we all hold Dear.

And some people were attributing it to Islam, calling it Islamic agenda. Many began to spite the school, calling it all sorts of derogatory names, with Islam in the picture. WaLlohi, the minds of many of these people are dark and evil, the Muslims have just become too weak to expose them. Indeed, it's the truth what Allaah said: “Never will the Jews nor the Christians be pleased with you (O Muhammad) till you follow their religion" It's Islamophobia that will kill some people. Did a story not come up one time of Covenant university rejecting admission to one Muslim guy in a similar fashion like this? Did anyone shout Christianization? When a Muslim does something, they attribute it to Islam. If it's the other way round, you won't hear such a thing coming from us. Why are you all so deeply obsessed with Islam if you do not fear for its greatness and try to talk it down or criticize it at any given chance? The reality is that many of these people are just insincere, sick-minded hypocrites! Imes is coming! Imes is coming! The world should prepare.  The reality of your true selves, how evil your hearts are actually and how foolish your arguments and philosophies are will soon be exposed to the world when Imes comes. All of you should continue! Imes will be making you all famous; yes, the whole will know you all for your evil and hypocritical ways.By the time Imes will come, humiliation will be your companion. humiliation will be your nick names. You will all wine and dine with humiliation unless you repent and turn towards truth. When Imes comes, it will be the end of your era and the beginning of a new one. When Imes comes, it will be game over for many of you hypocritical lots Imes is coming, You should all get prepared! And you are free to wail and attack me on mention.  That's your way and it will only make your humiliation more interesting when Imes eventually shows up. Imes, we await your coming  216 Likes 23 Shares |

That's a very silly excuse, so silly not only because cut-off mark for university is 180, the candidate had over 300 even though ABU would still admits students scoring less than 200 for the same exam. How then do we battle exam malpractices when individuals like the said candidate will diligently prepare for an exam, come out in flying colours and still be denied admission? Meanwhile, some on the alter of unprogressive and outdated sentiments be given the same admission. For how long is Nigeria going to drag herself underdevelopment? 220 Likes 14 Shares |

IAmStrange: This is not even about religion and tribalism. That's too petty. But by supporting what happened in that school, you've supported the assassination of hardwork, diligence and meritocracy and thus, you are not qualified at all to complain about the failure in Nigeria's system anymore. 295 Likes 25 Shares |

traihit: Look at another insincere approach! It's either you are insincere or you are ignorant of the whole thing First of all, I'm not supporting what the school did. my message was directed to those who attributed what they did to Islam in the previous post that went on front page. If you didn't see that post, go and check front page. So my message is directed to those that attacked Islam because of it. And secondly, the school has already explained the reason why they did what they did. did you not read the post? So what is your claim of "assassination of hsrdwork, diligence and meritocracy" based on and why would you go to the extent of calling me "not qualified to complain about bla bla bla"? again, it's either you are sincere and just wanted to attack me like the rest of your people or you are ignorant of the whole thing.

darfay: Oh! You are talking about those extremists who are upon the Aqeedah of Khawarij? Well, Islam does not only disapprove of them but the Muslims of the past also fought them. Look at this: (culled from: islamqa.info) Praise be to Allah. Dhuth-Thudayyah’s full name was Hurqoos ibn Zuhayr al-Bajali. He was one of the Khawaarij (Khaarijites) who rebelled against Ameer al- Mu’mineen ‘Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), spread mischief in the land and shed blood that it was forbidden to shed. ‘Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) fought them at the battle of an-Nahrawand and killed them; none of them escaped except a few. End quote. In fact, if the Muslims governments of today had taken their religion seriously, they would have joined hands to curb their excesses just like the Muslims of the past did. Go around and ask confirm Islamic scholars. I didn't say ask just anybody or any public figure. Ask Islamic scholars and they will tell you where and how those terrorists have gone wrong concerning Jihad. 18 Likes 5 Shares |

LadySarah: LadySarah, is this what your case has degenerated to? Gradually, you are coming out of your "Jesus believing Identity" to showcase the hypocrite that you are Indeed, the Prophet was right when He said that one of the signs of an hypocrite is that when he talks, he lies How would you call me bigot for stating the obvious truth? I expressed how your fellow Christians wrongly accused and attacked Islam in the other post, saying the reason why they refused the girl admission is because of Islamic agenda. Eventually, it turned out that they had other reasons and it wasn't on religious grounds. Your fellow Christians on that thread are the bigots here. They were the ones who attacked Islam unjustifiably and maliciously and did not seek out the actual truth in the matter. I'm only saying the obvious truth. Your fellow Christians were wrong and they are the bigots here! So why calling me a bigot? You are just like your fellow Christians and Imes is coming for all of you 57 Likes 5 Shares |

Of course, the criteria will accommodate for children of high-profile lecturers and/or management but not for highly intellectual candidates. Good riddance to absolute rubbish.

I laughed when I saw that news. 302/400 and he was shouting foul play. Maybe he thought Mbbs is equally sorted after like Education Management. I am a medical student in UI, UI doesn't have catchment area, 100% admission slot is by merit. However, there are almost 400 candidates that score 300+ in utme every year, and the carrying capacity for Mbbs in UI is just 180. That means, several candidates with 320+ won't end up getting Mbbs in the end, by the time aggregate score is determined. There is no foul play in this matter, only ignorant people who is not in the system will type such gibberish. 58 Likes 5 Shares |
