The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has declared that it will not be conducting admission for Law programme in eight institutions following the suspension of the Bachelor of Laws (LL.B) programme.
The Public Communications Advisor of JAMB, Dr Fabian Benjamin, made the declaration in Abuja on Wednesday, in a statement he issued.
According to him, that was because the Council of Legal Education, CLE, for the 2025/2026 academic session had suspended the law programmes for violating regulatory procedures.

He explained that the suspension of the Law programme at the Nigerian Police Academy, Wudil, Kano State, would last for two academic sessions – 2025/2026 and 2026/2027 sessions.

“Furthermore, the ban on registration for the Law programme at the Nigerian Police Academy will extend into the 2026/2027 academic session.”
