JAMB set to release 2024 UTME results

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has decided to release the results of the 2024 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.

Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, JAMB Registrar, is set to hold a press briefing in Abuja on Monday about the release of the results and associated items, according to a notice distributed to media in the capital city.

Fabian Benjamin, the Board’s Head of Public Relations, made the information available on Sunday.

However, there are indications that results that would be released on Monday are for the candidates that participated in the UTME in the first few days, while others would be released after “due diligence” is completed.

The board earlier clarified that the decision to delay the release of the results for a few days was made to allow ample time for thorough scrutiny.

This measure, according to the examination body, was taken to guarantee the credibility and integrity of the results, ensuring there are no doubts or uncertainties, especially concerning issues such as impersonation, mixed biometrics, and other forms of malpractices.

In the past week, more than 1.9 million candidates enrolled for the 2024 UTME across over 700 Computer-Based Test centers nationwide.

The 2024 examination, which commenced on Friday, April 19, 2024, is expected to be concluded today.
