History is taught under the Faculty of Arts and Humanities at Federal University, Lokoja (FULOKOJA). The History paper itself is the only subject named on all three routes into the department.
Everything around it is left open. The O’Level line names just two credits, the UTME line allows any Arts or Social Science papers, and Direct Entry refers only to related subjects.
Confirm that History appears on the current FULOKOJA course list and that your JAMB registration records it correctly before you sit the examination. A course entered in error cannot be assessed against these conditions.
