Post-UTME fraud

Universities in Nigeria have been publishing their post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination dates and methods of application for those candidates who meet their cut-off marks from the 2014 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination organised by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board.

As a concerned citizen, I want to bring to the notice of relevant authorities the hidden charges and the stress prospective candidates are made to go through in order to complete their applications.

More worrisome is the fact that the cost of application usually published in the newspapers is not what these candidates eventually pay. In most cases, candidates are made to pay all kinds of extra charges during the course of registration, which are not stated in the publication.

This act is fraudulent and these universities must be stopped from exploiting these candidates further.
