The
Joint Admission and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has released the result of the
Computer Based Test of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME,
for the 57,000 candidates that wrote the examination
on Saturday. This is as
racketeers have allegedly duped some of the candidates by selling fake
examination questions they tagged, ‘origi’ for N200,000 which JAMB latter
discovered that the questions were the JAMB questions in 1984. Speaking to
journalists after monitoring the examination on Monday, the Registrar, Prof.
Is-haq Oloyede disclosed that the result of UTME that was taken on Saturday by
over 57,000 candidates had been released. He also said that the examination
could not go on at the Lagos State University of Technology, LAUTECH because of
the ongoing strike in the institution, saying that if the strike was not called
off by today (Monday), the authorities of JAMB will have no other option than
to relocate the candidates to University of Ilorin which he said was the
nearest centre from Ogbomosho. Meantime, security operatives have arrested one
of the “candidates” in Aba, Abia state for allegedly attacking the JAMB
officials that prevented him from gaining entry into the exam centre. If my
observation is something to go by, then it takes 3 days for candidates to get
their result, meanwhile many candidates cannot access their result as at the
moment of filing this report as JAMB is yet to send result to their mail box.
