The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) says about 1.7 million candidates registered for this year’s Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations (UTME) including 120 prison inmates who will also sit for the examination.
The Registrar of the board, Prof. Is-haq Oloyede,
disclosed this at a news conference on Friday in Abuja. He also
confirmed the examination had not been postponed and will hold on
Friday, May 13 except for
those that have Seven Days Adventist service.
He
also advised UTME candidates to always check their e-mails for further
updates, noting that some candidates are fond of giving out their
passwords and e-mail addresses to strangers in spite of several warnings
from the board.
“Candidates should be aware of fraudsters who
hide under cyber cafe operators to defraud innocent children. We have
caught some of them while mischievously collecting money from candidates
with the help of some security officers,’’ he said.
