The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board JAMB has released additional 531 from the over 64,000 withheld results of the April 19-29 2024 University Tertiary Matriculation Examination UTME.
The Board’s spokesman,Dr Fabian Benjamin made this known in a statement on Tuesday.
He said “the Board is proceeding with the screening of over 64,000 Withheld results . It has, however, released additional 531 results taking the total number of results released to 1,842,897.
In the course of the exercise, other cases of examination misconduct were also established to make a tally of 92 from the 81 initially discovered”
Reacting to a trending story that the processes have been compromised, the board dismissed the report, maintaining that it is poised to ” protect the integrity of its systems against such malice actors,who are hell- bent on creating confusion where non existed.
” Consequently, the Board is primed to adding more features like registration number to the existing UTME Result checking process going forward to make it extra – difficult for anyone to edit.
It urged Candidates ” to securely keep their details secure for if they are found associating with any of these mischievous elements, they would be treated as collaborators”
” For now the method of checking the 2024 UTME remains sending UTMERESUIT to 55019 or 66019 and not through any other process. The result at the moment,is not on the Board’s website ” the statement added.
