He said the locating the centre in the community had also created more awareness for the youths in terms of seeking improved academic excellence.

Usman thanked the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board ( JAMB ) for considering the community worthy of recognition.

"You can see that the volume of trading activities has increased considerably since the commencement of the examination few days ago.

"We have mobilised our people, especially in the areas of security and accommodation.

"The essence is geared toward making the candidates' stay in the community a memorable and rewarding experience.
