Mop-up UTME: JAMB releases results of 80,000 candidates
The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released the results of the 80,000 candidates who participated in the mop-up Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) on Saturday, May 6, 2023.
JAMB had earlier in May announced that a mop-up UTME would be conducted for certain groups of candidates whose exams were rescheduled after missing the chance to sit the examinations between the period scheduled by the board owing to “no faults of their own.”
According to the board, the group of candidates include those, “who were verified at their centres but could not sit the examination; those who could not be biometrically verified, and those with mismatched data.”
In its bulletin published on Monday, May 8, 2023, JAMB through its spokesperson, Dr Fabian Benjamin announced that the results of the mop-up UTME have all been released.
The exam body said, “Results of mop-up UTME held on Saturday, May 6, 2023, released”.
This is coming one week after JAMB released the 2023 UTME results of the candidates who sat for the exam within the period scheduled by the exam body.
