Reactions as JAMB candidate goes missing
@MistAr_Juice said:
“I pray she’s safe. But imagine imagine @JAMBHQ scheduling exams for 6:30am. What time do you want these kids to get to their centres???”
@BashirH00404265 said:
“Why will you allow her to go alone? Even adults are not safe around that axis. I pray she comes back safely.”
@uccy_r said:
“Everyone should know about the Google Maps location-sharing feature. It’s very easy to set up, completely free, and incredibly useful. When your loved ones go out, make sure you can see their live location. I pray this girl returns home safely, this is heartbreaking.”
@olatunegie said:
“Chai, this Lekki-Epe is too risky and people need to be careful of those cars around that axis…if you can get a tracker to track her phone or her last locations would be good to trace her whereabouts.”
@Davardad said:
“Nobody was talking when Jamb was starting madness…. 98% of people writing jamb are kids, but you put them mls away and even put ridiculous time…..”
