JUST IN: JAMB Confirms 2024 Supplementary UTME Results 

The recent announcement from the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) confirms the release of results for candidates who took part in the supplementary Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).

This additional examination took place from Friday, June 21, to Saturday, June 22, 2024.

According to a statement issued by JAMB’s spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin, the board has officially made these results available for candidates.

The supplementary UTME was specifically organized for 28,835 individuals who faced challenges with biometric verification during the main 2024 UTME, hence were unable to participate in the initial exam.

Furthermore, the supplementary exam also catered to another group of candidates who were suspected of engaging in exam malpractices during the main UTME. These individuals were granted a second opportunity to retake the examination in order to demonstrate their knowledge and abilities.

“The exercise, which recorded a huge success nationwide, was marked by heightened security measures put in place by the Board to preclude any instance of examination infractions. 

As such, some nefarious characters who had attempted to impersonate bona fide candidates were apprehended and handed over to law enforcement agencies for further investigation and prosecution, “the statement read.

It read further: “The board would continue to ensure that no candidate benefits from any acts of infractions through the deployment of state-of-the-art technology before, during, and after its examinations. 

“Candidates are, therefore, urged in their own interest to refrain from engaging in any form of irregularity during their examinations.

“They are also enjoined to desist from soliciting score upgrades from fraudsters or engage in the mutilation of their result sheets while trying to generate fake result sheets with higher scores.

“To check their supplementary UTME results, candidates are to send UTMERESULT to either 55019 or 66019 through the same phone number they had used to generate their profile codes at the start of registration.”
