ABUJA – The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced the suspension of admission into the law programme of eight universities over violation of regulatory procedures.
JAMB’s Public Communications Advisor, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, announced the suspension in a statement on Wednesday.
Benjamin said the Board would not be conducting admissions for the Law programme in some selected universities following the suspension of the Bachelor of Laws (LL.B) programme by the Council of Legal Education (CLE) for the 2025/2026 academic session.
The affected universities are Kwara State University, Malete; Bingham University, Karu, Nasarawa State; Redeemers University, Ede, Osun State; Western Delta University, Oghara, Delta State.
Others are Taraba State University, Jalingo; Arthur Jarvis University, Akpabuyo; Alex Ekwueme Federal University, Ndufu-Alike, Ebonyi State, and Nigerian Police Academy, Wudil, Kano State.
The JAMB spokesperson, however, noted that “the suspension of the Law programme at the Nigerian Police Academy, Wudil, Kano State, will last for two academic sessions: specifically, the 2025/2026 and 2026/2027 sessions.
“As a result, JAMB will not approve any admissions for candidates seeking to enroll in the Law programme at the aforementioned universities for the 2025/2026 academic session.
“Furthermore, the ban on registration for the Law programme at the Nigerian Police Academy will extend into the 2026/2027 academic session,” the JAMB spokesman stated.
