JAMB To Hold Mop-Up Exam Saturday For UTME Candidates

The mop-up Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) being organised by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) for candidates who could not participate in the examinations for verified reasons will hold tomorrow, Saturday 6th August 2022.

JAMB is holding the examination to give equal opportunity to all candidates who are desirous of tertiary education admissions.

No fewer than 1,969 candidates missed the 2022 UTME and Direct Entry (DE) examinations due to fingerprint peculiarities, Bank Verification Number (BVN) challenges and other technical issues, according to data obtained from JAMB.

The data also showed that some candidates had their examination cancelled due to malpractices in 10 examination centres across five states.

JAMB urged the concerned candidates to urgently visit its website on: www.jamb.gov.ng to check their eligibility status and print their mop-up notification slips.

The board warned that there will be no room for excuse for any candidate who misses the opportunity.
