Social media activist Martin Vincent Otse, popularly known as Verydarkman (VDM), has reacted strongly to a tweet by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) regarding the outcome of this year’s examination.
Following widespread mass failure among candidates, some students reportedly attempted to take their own lives. In response, JAMB tweeted that the failure was due to a systemic error.

VDM, who recently clashed with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), described JAMB’s tweet as insensitive and irresponsible. He criticised the board’s social media handler, labelling them “foolish,” and blamed the examination body’s incompetence for driving many Nigerian students into depression after the results were released.
He further condemned the persistent systemic failures, highlighting how JAMB continuously offers excuses rather than accountability.
VDM questioned when Nigerians would begin holding their leaders responsible for such repeated negligence.

Speaking about a girl who reportedly took her own life after seeing her results, VDM lamented that the tragedy was unnecessary but was caused by the depression following her failure in the exam.
He prayed for the girl’s soul to rest in peace and asserted that the country had failed her.
The activist added that JAMB’s tweet and the exam results had caused widespread distress among Nigerian students.

VDM responds to public reaction and blames the system
Commenting on the public discourse surrounding the results, VDM noted that many people mocked Nigerian students, blaming their alleged social media addiction for the failure.
He strongly rejected this narrative, placing the blame on the Nigerian system instead.
VDM also called out a critic who blamed students for the mass failure, attributing this to the fact that the JAMB registrar studied religious knowledge, implying a lack of understanding of the issue.
He concluded by urging students to consider taking legal action against examination bodies for their failures. He also called on other parents to take action in situations like that.
VDM also spoke about the timing of the examination and stated that it was the wrong timing for students to travel round.
