Mathematics should not be a compulsory subject for humanities - JAMB Registrar

In what will excite many parents and students, especially those who want to read humanities in the Colleges of Education, Ishaq Oloyede has advocated that mathematics as a subject is unnecessary.

Professor Oloyede who is the registrar of Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, disclosed this on Tuesday, February 23, 2021, in Abuja.

Also, he warned Provosts of Colleges of Education against the conduct of illegal admissions, Nigerian Tribune reports.

Recall that president of the Colleges of Education Academic Staff Union (COASU), Comrade Nuhu Ogirima, had earlier insisted that somebody who wants to undergo any course in Humanities does not require mathematics for anything since such an individual would have acquired the basics at the basic and secondary levels of education.
