Kamil Rauf, the director of the University of Ilorin’s Computer-Based Centre, said 16,097 admission seekers attended the institution’s 2024 Post-UTME screening on Monday.

Mr Rauf expressed delight over the seamless conduct of the exercise while speaking with journalists in Ilorin, attributing the huge number to adequate preparations put in place by the university management.

“The success recorded in the exercise was as a result of the material and human resources’ support given to the CBT by the management. During the exercise, the centre employed the use of high-level technological innovation it put in place by the institution,” he said.

Mr Rauf also noted that the quality of the infrastructure at the CBT had a positive impact on the university’s internal examinations.

He said these included departmental examinations, Institute of Education examinations, Centre for Open and Distance Learning examination (CODL), remedial examinations and Post-UTME screening.

Mr Rauf said the University of Ilorin was also a centre used to conduct the police and pension service promotion examinations.

“Others include examinations for the Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria, Nursing Council of Nigeria, and Agricultural Council of Nigeria, among others,” he said.

The director was, however, silent on the number of admission seekers the university would be giving admission to for the 2024/2025 session.

”I will get back to the media on this once the decision is taken,” he said.
