Infrastructural Decay Hinders Conduct Of 2025 JAMB, WASCE Exams – Obi
A scholar and academic researcher in Human Resources Management, Dr. Fortune Uchenna Obi, has attributed the recent poor performances in the Joint Matriculation Examination Board (JAMB) and West African School Certificate Examination (WASCE) to infrastructural decay in the examination bodies. Speaking with journalists in Port Harcourt, Obi emphasised the urgent need for improved infrastructure to ensure seamless conduct of examinations in the country.
While acknowledging that the nation’s educational system is evolving, Dr. Obi stressed that the current state of infrastructure in national examination bodies is a major concern. He called for a total overhaul of the educational curriculum to have a positive impact on the country.
Obi, who recently acquired a Ph.D. degree from Ignatius Ajuru University of Education (IAUE), described education as the key driver of a society’s economy and fortune. He emphasised the need for managers to be intentional with policies to achieve organisational goals.
On his academic achievement, Dr. Obi expressed gratitude to God, his family, and lecturers, describing the journey as challenging but fulfilling. He noted that the experience was an eye-opener in the field of Human Resources and Organisational Management.
