Enioluwa Adeoluwa Slams JAMB Over 6:30 AM Exam Schedule

Nigerian influencer and media personality, Enioluwa Adeoluwa, has sparked conversation online after voicing his concerns over the early scheduling of the ongoing JAMB examinations.

Taking to social media, Enioluwa criticised the exam body’s decision to set papers as early as 6:30 am, calling out what he described as “the anyhowness in Nigeria.”

Enioluwa noted that such poor planning and lack of consideration for the country’s current situation reflects badly on the examination body and should not have been allowed.

He also challenged the exam authorities to rethink the schedule, stating:
“My major problem with Nigeria is our anyhowness, and it has creeped so much into the system that you find a person doing a certain thing, and you ask them why are they doing it, and they have no logical reasoning for doing it. It’s because they’re used to the system of anyhowness. I heard that one of the national exams in the country that is written by secondary school students was placed for 6:30 am. Secondary school students who are often at the age of 14 to 17 and my issue is if you ask why the exam was placed for 6:30 am there’s most likely not a sense of logical explanation to why it was placed for 6:30 am. It’s our anyhowness because all it takes is for one person in that organization to say I know this is how we’ve been doing it before, but we’re in a different climb now security risk has increased in the country.”

The 25-year-old further lamented, questioning:

“Also, should a student really wake up by 5 am to meet a 6:30 am examination as a 15-year-old? Is their brain able to process all that they’ve read by 6:30 am because it means that they have to wake up by 5 am? Was any experiment done to put three students and say, we’re going to test what is the best time to write this examination? Also, consider the economic situation of the country.”

Enioluwa added that many students rely on public transportation, which should have been considered before scheduling such early exams.

He also shared alarming concerns:
“When it is light banter, it is okay. But when it becomes a real issue, can we look into our cerebrum and think a little? Because this is a serious issue that would affect people’s lives. Thank you.”

This comes just days after his best friend, Priscilla, daughter of Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo, celebrated her marriage to her Tanzanian spouse, Jama.
