The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has suspended admissions into the Law Faculty of Fountain University, Osogbo for the 2025/26 academic session.
JAMB Spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin announced this in a statement on Friday.
TheFact Daily gathered that this brings the number of institutions barred from taking students for the next academic year to nine (9).
Benjamin noted that the development “follows an additional submission from the Council of Legal Education (CLE), making Fountain University the ninth institution where JAMB will not be conducting admissions into the Law programme for the 2025/26 academic session”.
JAMB had earlier disclosed that it would not process admissions for the Law programme in eight Nigerian universities owing to the suspension of their Bachelor of Laws (LL.B) programme by the CLE.
The universities earlier affected are: Kwara State University, Malete, Ilorin, Kwara State, Bingham University, Karu, Nasarawa State, Redeemers University, Ede, Osun State, Western Delta University, Oghara, Delta State.
Others are; Taraba State University, Jalingo, Taraba State, Arthur Jarvis University, Akpabuyo, Cross River State, Alex Ekwueme Federal University, Ndufu-Alike, Ebonyi State, Nigerian Police Academy, Wudil, Kano State and Fountain University, Osogbo, Osun State as the ninth one.
“It is important to reiterate that the suspension of the Law programme at the Nigerian Police Academy, Wudil, Kano State, will last for two academic sessions, specifically the 2025/2026 and 2026/2027 sessions, based on the decision of the Council of Legal Education (CLE)”, the statement said.
