The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) have released the results of over 17,000 candidates who sat for the Mop-Up Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) last Friday.

The examination was conducted in some select computer-based test centers (CBT) nationwide.

JAMB’s Head of Media and Information, Fabian Benjamin, confirmed the release of the results to newsmen in Abuja.

He directed candidates who wrote the examination to check the board’s website for their results.

Benjamin said the results of the examination have since been released and affected candidates are required to access their results using their registration number on www.jamb.gov.ng.

It was gathered that results belonging to a few candidates who had issues during the examination are being screened.

A JAMB official said the board would withdraw the results of candidates found to have been involved in malpractices during the examination, even after they have been released.

The board had, on July 30, 2021, contacted about 18,000 candidates who were affected by the rescheduling/technical problems at 30 of the 760 centers used for the conduct of the examination on June 19 for the mop-up UTME.

The official said the results are being screened to ensure that they were not involved in malpractice.
