May time heal what words cannot reach. If you remember this night too, share a thought or leave a light in the replies. ๐ฏ๏ธ๐๏ธ
#October2020#MemoryAndReflection
The air in the evening held an unfamiliar cold,
A season of walking on uneven ground,
Where miles stretched out beneath weary feet
And the wheels of transit came to a halt.
Not a word too loud, not a finger pointed high,
A simple silent prayer as the spirits pass by,
Holding grief in a neutral space,
Where healing is in the face of every scar.
RE: โYOU CANโT BE IN UNIVERSITY AND STILL WRITE JAMBโ
The attention of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has been drawn to a misleading and unfortunate distortion of a portion of the Boardโs clear directives to candidates registering for the 2026 UTME/DE, as contained in the 2026 UTME/DE advertisement. This deliberate misrepresentation is being propagated by some unscrupulous self-styled education advocates for parochial interests.
This development is hardly surprising, as such individuals routinely surface at the commencement of every registration cycle. Many of them do not take the time to read or properly understand the guidelines, yet hastily rush to the public space with false narratives aimed solely at attracting traffic to their social media platforms. Had they read the instructions, they would have found them unambiguous and straightforward.
For the avoidance of doubt and for record purposes, and in line with its statutory mandate to prevent multiple matriculations, the Board directed that all candidates registering for the 2026 UTME/DE must disclose their matriculation status, where applicable.
It is not an offence for a candidate to register for the UTME/DE while still enrolled in an institution. However, failure to disclose such status constitutes an offence. Disclosure simply means that once a candidate secures admission through the latest registration, the former admission automatically ceases to subsist.
The law is explicit that no candidate is permitted to hold two admissions concurrently.
Furthermore, recent findings indicate that many matriculated students are engaged as professional examination takers. Mandatory disclosure therefore expedites appropriate action whenever such candidates are apprehended.
Although the Boardโs system has the capacity to detect prior matriculation, any candidate discovered to have failed to disclose such status stands the risk of forfeiting both opportunities.
The Board therefore urges the public to be cautious of these so-called education advocates who are perpetually eager to mislead candidates and parents for selfish gain. Members of the public are advised to carefully read official guidelines and avoid accepting distorted interpretations wholesale.

ASK FOR HELP!
I had a moment today that humbled me.
Walking home from church, two little girls, maybe 4 and 6 years old approached me. They spoke to me in Yoruba, but it wasnโt the "surface" version Iโm used to. It was รjรฌnlแบนฬ (Deep).
I asked, "What did you say?"โฆ
I want us to rekindle our prayer fire today.
1. Drop a "๐" in the comments if you are committing to NOT giving up on your prayer life.
2. Share this with someone who feels like their prayers are hitting a ceiling.
Letโs be persistent. The Helper is standing right there.
