Finally JAMB Releases Withheld Results

For those people who have been calling me day and night icluding midnight now you'd lemme rest! the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has finally released the results earlier withheld over what it described as non-biometric verification.

Also, 91,610 candidates will commence the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) Computer Based Test (CBT) in the seven designated centres from Saturday...

The scheduled computer-based test will hold from May 18 till June 1, 2013, in over 70 centres. Candidates are thus advised to reprint their e-Registration slips afresh to further ascertain their CBT centres.

Registrar and Chief Executive of JAMB, Professor ‘Dibu Ojerinde, while announcing the release of the results of the paper-pencil test and dual-based test across the nation and two foreign centres, said the CBT will take place in Nigeria and other countries namely Saudi Arabia, United Kingdom and South Africa.

Ojerinde who had said over 80,419 results of the candidates were withheld for various reasons, noted that out of this figure, results of 68,309 candidates from various centres were undergoing further screening to ascertain their culpability, while results of 12,110 candidates had been withheld for possible disciplinary action

But those whose results were withheld over lack of bio-metric verification are lucky, as theirs have now been released. They can go to the JAMB designated website to check their results.

It would be recalled that some of the candidates, who could not be verified as the biometric could not show their finger print on the day of the examination were listed by the invigilators in the affected examination centres and forwarded to JAMB head-office, Abuja, for scrutiny.
