Wait, UNIABUJA does not accept JUPEB for Direct Entry at all?

That is correct, Richard. Item 4 of the official circular signed by Acting Registrar Mrs. Roseline Adakayi explicitly states that candidates with JUPEB or NABTEB 'A' Level need not apply. If you hold JUPEB, you should change your DE institution on JAMB to a university that accepts JUPEB.
