The Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT), Kaduna, has once again asserted its status as one of Nigeria’s fastest-rising tertiary institutions, emerging as the best-performing university in the country for compliance with JAMB’s admission guidelines at the 5th Edition of the National Tertiary Admissions Performance-Merit Awards (NAPTAP-M).

The award ceremony, organised by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), was held on Monday, 8th July 2025, at the Bola Tinubu International Conference Centre in Abuja.

In an official statement signed by the Director of Public Relations and Information, Air Commodore Ehimen Ejodame, it was disclosed that AFIT secured first position among all Nigerian universities for its strict adherence to JAMB’s admission standards during the 2024/2025 academic session. This marks a significant leap from the 2023/2024 cycle, when the institution placed second.

Further highlighting its consistent performance, AFIT ranked 4th overall in the combined evaluation for the 2023/2024 and 2024/2025 admission years, coming behind Ahmadu Bello University, the University of Ilorin, and Nile University in a field of 172 universities nationwide.

The recognition, according to the statement, reaffirms AFIT’s commitment to transparency, merit-based admissions, and high academic standards in line with both national expectations and global best practices.

Reacting to the feat, the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Hasan Bala Abubakar, commended the Institute’s leadership and staff for sustaining a culture of academic and administrative excellence. He described the award as “a validation of the Nigerian Air Force’s deliberate and strategic investment in education as a key enabler of air power and national development.”

He further stated, “AFIT’s adherence to merit-based admissions reflects the values of discipline, integrity, and professionalism which the Nigerian Air Force seeks to instil across all its institutions. The performance of AFIT at the NAPTAP-M Awards demonstrates our resolve to build a future-ready Air Force anchored on knowledge, innovation, and competence. We will continue to support AFIT in its mission to produce highly skilled graduates, not just for the NAF, but for Nigeria at large.”

Renowned as Nigeria’s premier aerospace and defence-focused higher institution, AFIT has continued to evolve into a world-class hub for research-driven education, innovation, and character development. Its expanding national relevance and reputation for quality academic delivery have earned it a place among the country’s most dynamic federal universities.
