JAMB releases 1.6 million UTME results

The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has released 1,606,901 results out of the 1,718, 425 that registered in the just concluded Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME.

Mr Ishaq Oloyede said it was also a deliberate act by the board to withhold about 76,923 results dues to some alleged malpractices in some of the Computer Based Centres (CBT) where exams were held.
 so far, we have released the results of 1,606,901 candidates leaving us with a balance of 80,889.
“Out of this 80,889, we have deliberately withheld 76,925 results for further investigation because of alleged malpractices.”
He added that results that had not been released would be released before the commencement of admission exercise.

He also said that supplementary examination would be conducted soon for candidates who had hitches in the registration and examination processes.
