Another priest reacts to JAMB registrar’s apology
Also reacting to the JAMB registrar’s apology, another Catholic priest, Chinaka Justin Mbaeri, tagged it as a false apology made to appear sincere and win people over in the light of their gross irresponsibility. He wrote on Facebook:
“This was exactly my observation too. Sadly, they want to play with our intelligence by putting the blame on God in the name of a false apology just to appear apologetic, sincere, humble and win the hearts of many for their gross irresponsibility.
“SAD!”
