Dapo Abiodun, the Governor of Ogun State, congratulated Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, the Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, on his 70th birthday.

He described him as a phenomenal scholar and astute administrator.

The Ogun Governor said on Thursday in his statement issued by Lekan Adeniran, his Chief Press Secretary, and sent to journalist.

He eulogised the degree of sanity and transparency that the Professor of Islamic Studies has entrenched in the administration of the examination board.

The governor stated, “Oloyede, through his uncompromising posture and strict adherence to laws and regulations, has changed the narrative of public administration in Nigeria.

“Professor Ishaq Oloyede is indeed a pride of Ogun State; he remains a leading light among many of his contemporaries and distinctly stands out for his integrity and thorough approach.

“He brought his administrative acumen as a Vice-Chancellor to bear in JAMB and transformed the board to the admiration of many Nigerians.

His scholarly and religious inclinations are exemplary, and we wish him many more fruitful years ahead in sound health.”
