Across the world, tertiary institutions are highly respected for their vital roles in society’s advancement. They lead human capital development; research, innovation, and knowledge generation; civic engagement; the advancement of democracy; and social transformation, among other roles. For institutions tasked with driving such high levels of transformation in society, nothing is more unsettling than the odious revelation that some engage in vices as grim as illegally admitting students and borrowing lecturers, equipment, laboratories, and other facilities to deceive accreditation teams in the country.
The recent allegation by the Federal Government that the affected institutions illegally admitted more than 258,000 students points not only to lax regulatory oversight in the Nigerian university system but also to sustained efforts to abuse established statutory channels, especially the Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS) managed by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB). By creating illegal admission channels outside the official portals meant for the function, tertiary institutions are deliberately circumventing national cut-off marks, merit principles, and government-approved carrying capacities. This is worrisome and unacceptable.
