KWASU Issues Notice on JAMB’s 1-Year Law Admission Ban; Kwara State University (KWASU), Malete, acknowledges the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board’s (JAMB) decision to suspend admissions into its Law programmes for the 2025/2026 academic session. This suspension stems from the Council for Legal Education’s (CLE) sanction, which was imposed because KWASU initiated its Law programme in 2018 with approval from the National Universities Commission (NUC) but without prior clearance from the CLE.
