This is not coming as a surprise to me, because several groups in Nigeria have politely asked the JAMB board if they could hold the 2015 jamb exam for both PPT and CBT candidates, because as claimed by the groups, most candidates in Nigeria don’t know how to operate a computer system yet.
Well, the response given by the Joint Admission and Matriculation board will surely shock you, because according to the board,” if you can make a call, send message on your mobile phone and browse the internet with your mobile phone, then you can as well, write the Computer Base Test (CBT) without troubles arising.”
