JAMB Registrar Oloyede to Step Down After 2026 Admissions Policy Meeting
The Minister of State for Education, Prof. Suwaiba Said Ahmad, announced on Monday that the 2026 Policy Meeting on Admissions into Tertiary Institutions will be the final one overseen by Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board Registrar, Prof. Is-haq Olanrewaju Oloyede.
Speaking at the meeting in Abuja, Ahmad said Oloyede’s 10-year tenure had “fundamentally changed the institution.”
“This is the last policy meeting you will be holding. He has been here for ten years. He has done a lot of good things. Ten years is a long time but he is not tired,” Ahmad said. “We will just give you a resting period to relax a bit and then we will just call you back.”
Oloyede assumed office as JAMB Registrar on Aug. 9, 2016. Within three years he overhauled the board’s operations and finances.
