He explained that JAMB as an organization whose mantra is equity and fairness desires that every prospective candidate be given equal opportunity to compete with his/her peers for the available openings which is the reason JAMB will be meeting with all the institutions with a view to amending the earlier and mutually-agreed date for the conduct of Post-UTME screening and other processes.
