Nollywood actress and filmmaker Mary Remy Njoku has stirred major buzz online after boldly suggesting that Nigeria should scrap JAMB (Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board). Taking to social media, Njoku questioned the continued relevance of the examination body and wondered why students still need it when they already possess SSCE results.
In a candid reflection, the actress recounted how JAMB once stood in her way, nearly stopping her from getting into the university of her choice. That setback, she revealed, unintentionally pushed her into acting a career path that eventually became her breakthrough.
Her opinion has sparked intense reactions, with some agreeing that JAMB creates unnecessary hurdles, while others believe it helps uphold academic standards.
