JAMB is it a classic case of ‘Survival Of The Fittest’?

24th of March, 2012, on Saturday, 1.5million students sat for JAMB to gain admission into tertiary institutions across the country.Good News right?
 But here comes the clause…Professor Dibu Ojerinde(JAMB registrar) said  days back, that the admission capacity across all tertiary institutions in the country is only 500,000.
So what happens to the remaining 1million students (who have been studying really hard to excel and look further to gaining admission from their brilliant performance? Let me phrase the question, if 1million students make above the required mark that JAMB need, what happens to them since JAMB admission capacity is only 500,000 students?

Its like packing people on a train without taking them to their location,all in d name making gain, if each student paying N4,600....yet nothing to show for it...its really not fair.

Is it going to sch D SOLUTION to the problem in Nigeria; the social vices in Nigeria,like corruption etc, taking N4,6oo from each student knowing fully well that it is only 5oo,000 space left for admission,so acquiring western education,yet you u see sth like this happening from those that are educated,then WHAT DO WE MEAN BY DEMOCRACY

A woman who sells akara brings out all she had at end of the month to ensure her brilliant son gets brighter future and in d end he is not taken, not bc she didnt meet the cut off mark but bc the JAMB admission had taken d 500,000 students....how fair is that? so its only those that have connection up there that will be admitted....this shld be stopped, let d no of people they can admit pay for JAMB,let it be by batches so we know those that didnt qualify,failed,not cut off those who passed all the name of limited vacacies.AS skull to those JAMB organisers....not impressed
