The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board’s Head of Media and Information, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, disclosed in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria on Wednesday in Lagos, that plans were already in place to forward the results of the 2019 UTME to individual candidate’s online registration profiles where they could view and have such printed.

Benjamin expressed sincere apologies concerning candidates who had challenges accessing their results.He noted that the Board was partnering with the network providers in ensuring quality service in an attempt to forestall such occurrences in its subsequent examinations.

Over 1.3 Million Candidates Have Accessed 2019 UTME Results So Far – JAMB

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board says over 1.3 million candidates have so far accessed their results using the result checker (code), 55019. The board’s Head, Media and Information, Dr Fabian Benjamin, disclosed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria on Wednesday in Lagos, while speaking against reports circulating that majority of candidates had yet to access their results through the said code.

He also described as untrue, claims by some mischief makers that the N50 charges incurred through the code was going to the board’s purse.
“I want to refute all these claims as there is no truth in them.
“First and foremost, by our records, over 1.3 candidates who sat for this examination have accessed their results using the code for checking the results, which remains ‘55019’.
“Again, let me also state in clear terms that the N50 charged in the process of checking these results does not go to JAMB’s purse but to the various service providers,” Benjamin said.
According to the spokesman, the clarification became necessary in view of what he described as ‘wicked and malicious rumours’ by some persons that the board is charging a fee for checking of results.
Giving a breakdown of the total number of results checked by candidates through the various network providers, Benjamin noted that MTN had the highest, with a total of 888,598, followed by Glo, with a total of 190,923, while 62,170 candidates had also accessed their results using the 9mobile.
Benjamin said that before now, Airtel had some technical hitches, but thankfully, all such challenges had been addressed. A total of 104, 970 candidates have so far accessed their results via Airtel.

If upgrading is possible, how many upgraded results have you seen so far? I’m very sure there would be no failure in UTME again if it’s possible to upgrade results.

Malpractice: JAMB arrests 123 suspects, parades worker for fraud

Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, the Registrar, Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) fielding questions from newsmen.

The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has disclosed that the 123 candidates arrested for malpractices during the computer-based test held across the nation are currently standing trial nationwide.
JAMB Registrar, Prof Is-haq Oloyede, disclosed this at the board’s headquarters in Abuja, while parading a staff member of the examination board, Mr Adamu Musa, who allegedly collected N25,000 from an admission seeker in 2018.
Musa was attached to the Information Technology Service of the body.
The registrar said, “He collected N25,000 for admission. So, we are not hiding anything. Even internally, we are doing scrutiny. Anybody caught will be dealt with according to the law.”
Speaking with newsmen, Musa confessed to the crime, adding that he had refunded N10,000 to the admission seeker when the admission did not come through.
He narrated that, “The person came to me for admission and I told him that I knew people who would help. I collected N25,000 from him. But it did not work. So I refunded N10,000. He was the one who reported to the registrar. The person I contacted to assist the admission seeker said they had already closed the admission.
“I apologise and I want JAMB to temper justice with mercy. This is the first candidate I collected money from.”
The punch reported the person who paid Musa N25,000, One Bakare Damilola,  as saying trouble started when the admission did not come through and the JAMB worker refused to refund the money.
He said, “I am not the one seeking admission. I was sent by the father of the candidate involved. I came and explained everything to this man (Musa). I wrote the candidate’s registration number down and he asked me to wait outside. Later, he told me it would involve money.
“The father of the girl, Mr Olaoye, who is based in Lagos State, sent the money to Musa’s account and I have the teller. Mr Olaoye was desperate for the admission of his daughter because she had stayed home for eight years. Eventually, the admission did not come through. We asked Musa to refund the money. He kept postponing and I reported him to the registrar,” he explained.
