JAMB Suspends POLAC Law Admission for 2025 Session

JAMB Suspends POLAC Law Admission for 2025 Session due to accreditation issue.

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced that admissions into the Bachelor of Laws (LL.B) programme at Nigeria Police Academy Wudil (POLAC) and seven other universities will not be processed for the 2025/2026 academic session.

This decision was made after the Council of Legal Education (CLE), the highest regulatory body for legal education in Nigeria, suspended law programmes at Nigeria Police Academy Wudil (POLAC).

In a statement released by JAMB’s spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin, the board clarified that the suspension is part of efforts to maintain standards in legal education across the country.

As a result, candidates seeking to study Law in POLAC and the other affected universities will not be able to secure admission through JAMB for the 2025/2026 session.

Why POLAC Law Admission for 2025 is Suspended

The Council of Legal Education (CLE) is responsible for ensuring that law programmes in Nigerian universities meet the required standards for producing qualified legal professionals.

The suspension of law programmes in Nigeria Police Academy Wudil (POLAC) is due to issues related to accreditation and non-compliance with CLE’s guidelines.

JAMB emphasised that the suspension will last for two academic sessions, covering both the 2025/2026 and 2026/2027 sessions.

This means that candidates who had hoped to study Law in POLAC during this period will need to consider other universities or programmes.
