The Federal High Court in Enugu has ordered the University of Lagos (UNILAG), Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), and the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) to suspend all admission activities for the 2025/2026 academic session.
The ruling came from Justice A.T. Segun-Bello after a group of students took the matter to court.
The applicants Chibuzor Success, Oyeleye Zainab Ayomide, Adedeji John Samuel, Monsura Aliat Aduragbem, and Bassey Daniel Nsikak filed the case on behalf of many other candidates who sat for the post-UTME examinations in the two universities.
They asked the court to issue an urgent order to stop the institutions and JAMB from releasing or approving admission lists until their complaints are heard.
According to them, allowing the schools to continue with the process would affect their chances and make the case useless.
Justice Segun-Bello agreed that the issue raised by the students was important and needed to be carefully considered.
The judge therefore directed that both the universities and JAMB must be formally notified to respond.
Meanwhile, he ordered that all parties should maintain the current situation and not take any further steps with the admission list until the case is resolved.
This means that no admission list for the 2025/2026 academic year can be released or finalized by UNILAG, OAU, or JAMB until the court gives a final decision.
The case has been adjourned to October 28, 2025, when both sides are expected to present their arguments.
