Omoyele Sowore, a human rights activist, has called for the immediate abolition of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFund), and the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND), referring to them as “extracurricular bureaucratic busybodies.”
Sowore issued this comment on Wednesday via his official X (formerly Twitter) in reaction to JAMB’s recent admission that technological difficulties have harmed the performance of some applicants in the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
“It’s time to scrap these extracurricular bureaucratic busybodies, JAMB, NYSC, TETFund, NELFUND—they’re all useless,” Sowore stated.
