By Titilope Johnson The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) is set to establish a UTME centre in Ottawa, Canada, allowing Nigerians in the diaspora to sit for the examination without travelling home. While the move will make the process more convenient for Nigerians living in Canada, it has also raised questions about the state of Nigeria’s tertiary education system. Many Nigerian students at home still face challenges including poor infrastructure, network failures, biometric issues and technical difficulties during examinations. At the same time, many Nigerians travel abroad in search of better educational opportunities. The development therefore raises a broader question: beyond making UTME accessible abroad, what is Nigeria doing to make its universities attractive enough for Nigerians in the diaspora to willingly return home for their education? JAMB’s expansion to Canada may improve accessibility, but strengthening university facilities, learning environments and opportunities could be a bigger step towards making Nigerian institutions more competitive.
