According to Former Minister of Aviation , Chief Osita Chidoka, he said he was invited by JAMB’s Registrar with other selected stakeholders. Chidoka explained that what he saw at JAMB office was encouraging.
He wrote:” the Athena Centre has been inundated with messages and calls urging us to speak on the 2025 JAMB results.
“While we deeply appreciate the growing public confidence in our work, we believe that commentary—especially on such a sensitive national issue—must be based on evidence, not emotion or speculation.
“To this end, we refrained from making public statements until we had verified information.
“Today, at the invitation of the JAMB Registrar, Prof Oloyede, I had the privilege of joining other selected stakeholders, Commissioners for Education, Vice Chancellors, the Parents Teachers Association, the Computer Professionals Association of Nigeria, and Chief External Examiners, at the JAMB headquarters for a comprehensive review of the 2025 examination process.
“What I witnessed left me encouraged.
“JAMB has embraced transparency, rigour, and accountability in the face of serious public concern. I am proud of the open and honest process they instituted to address the technical issues that affected results in Lagos and the South East. This is the hallmark of institutional integrity and responsibility.
“We observed the physical re-marking of randomly selected scripts—a painstaking but necessary process. It showed a commitment to truth over convenience.
“We have filed a Freedom of Information request at the Athena Centre through the Arthur Nwankwo Institute. We are reviewing 10 years of past results for comparative analysis with the 2025 results.
“So far, I am impressed with the review process and call on all affected candidates to remain calm and await formal communication from JAMB in the coming days.
“Our country will grow when public institutions are accountable, citizens are active, and organisations remain vigilant.
“I also want to thank Alex Onyia, CEO of Educare, for his consistent advocacy in the education sector and for standing firmly on the side of students and fairness.
“Let us build a nation where truth, not speculation, shapes our response to failure and where integrity is the foundation of reform”.
