This is contained in a statement by Fabian Benjamin, Ph.D, Public Communications Advisor for JAMB.

It noted that the suspension of the Law programme at the Nigerian Police Academy, Wudil, Kano State, will last for two academic sessions: specifically, 2025/2026 and 2026/2027 sessions.

”Furthermore, the ban on registration for the Law programme at the Nigerian Police Academy will extend into the 2026/2027 academic session,” JAMB added.
