Scheduled for a press briefing in the capital city of Abuja on Monday, JAMB Registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, will shed light on the outcome of the examination and address pertinent matters surrounding its release.

The buzz surrounding the release of the results has been palpable, with eager anticipation among candidates, parents, and educators alike. However, it has come to light that the results set for unveiling on Monday will pertain specifically to those candidates who participated in the UTME during its initial days. For others, the wait may extend a bit longer as the board undertakes comprehensive due diligence to ensure the integrity and credibility of the results.

This decision to delay the release of certain results underscores JAMB’s unwavering commitment to upholding the standards of fairness and transparency in the examination process. By allowing ample time for meticulous scrutiny, the board aims to eradicate any doubts or uncertainties that may arise, particularly concerning issues such as impersonation, mixed biometrics, and other forms of malpractice.

The sheer scale of participation in the 2024 UTME is a testament to its significance in the educational landscape of Nigeria. With over 1.9 million candidates enrolling across more than 700 Computer-Based Test centers nationwide, the examination has emerged as a pivotal milestone for students aspiring to pursue higher education.

Commencing on Friday, April 19, 2024, the UTME has been a rigorous test of knowledge, aptitude, and preparedness for candidates seeking admission into tertiary institutions. As the examination draws to a close, the release of results heralds the beginning of a new chapter for countless individuals, paving the way for their academic pursuits and future endeavors.

Through meticulous scrutiny and steadfast dedication to integrity, JAMB endeavors to ensure that the results of the 2024 UTME accurately reflect the capabilities and achievements of each candidate. As the countdown to the release continues, the anticipation mounts, underscoring the significance of this milestone in the educational journey of thousands of Nigerian students.
