JAMB Prohibits Law Admissions at Police Academy, Redeemers University, and Six Other Institutions

JAMB Prohibits Law Admissions at Police Academy, Redeemers University, and Six Other Institutions

INVESTIGATION.... CURBING EXAMINATION MALPRACTICE: JAMB example and admission racketeering (Part 2)

Aspiring law students hoping to secure admission into some Nigerian universities have been dealt a blow.

This is as the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced it will not process admissions for the Bachelor of Laws (LL.B) programme in several institutions where the Council of Legal Education (CLE) has suspended legal studies.

The decision, revealed in a statement by JAMB’s Public Communications Advisor, Fabian Benjamin, on Wednesday, stated that “for the 2025/2026 academic session, JAMB will not approve any admissions for candidates seeking to enroll in the Law programme at the affected universities”.

The CLE, which oversees legal education in Nigeria, has not publicly disclosed the specific reasons for the suspension. However, such actions are typically taken due to non-compliance with accreditation requirements, inadequate faculty, poor infrastructure, or substandard legal training environments.

The Nigerian Police Academy, Wudil, Kano State, was particularly affected, with a longer ban extending into the 2026/2027 academic session, signaling deeper concerns about its law programme.

The suspension affects the following universities, where JAMB has now barred admissions for law students in the upcoming session:

  • Kwara State University, Malete, Ilorin, Kwara State
  • Bingham University, Karu, Nasarawa State
  • Redeemer’s University, Ede, Osun State
  • Western Delta University, Oghara, Delta State
  • Taraba State University, Jalingo, Taraba State
  • Arthur Jarvis University, Akpabuyo, Cross River State
  • Alex Ekwueme Federal University, Ndufu-Alike, Ebonyi State
  • Nigerian Police Academy, Wudil, Kano State

This suspension serves as a warning to universities that fail to meet CLE’s rigorous requirements. For affected students who had hoped to study law in these institutions, the decision disrupts their plans and forces them to consider alternatives.

While JAMB’s stance ensures that only properly accredited institutions train future lawyers, it also raises concerns about how universities will address these deficiencies and whether they will regain accreditation in time for future admissions.

For now, prospective law students must rethink their application choices, as the CLE and JAMB tighten oversight to uphold the quality of legal education in Nigeria.
