Is JAMB ready for CBT?

The leadership of student unions at all levels in the country should draw the attention of the authorities concerned, especially the Minister of Education, Mallam Ibrahim Shekarau.
When the CBT started on Monday, March 9, 2015, those who should have commenced by 6am could not start until 10am, just as those slated for 10am could not start till 2pm. And the moment a candidate spent one and half hours, the computer stopped even though the duration of the test was two hours.  From what I saw, JAMB is not at all ready for the computer- based test. To avoid such problems next year, the board needs to properly prepare.
