The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) is poised to unveil the outcomes of the 2024 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), with plans underway for the release of results. JAMB Registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, is slated to address a press conference in Abuja on Monday to formally announce the release and provide pertinent details.
While the anticipation mounts, indications suggest that initially, the results to be unveiled may pertain to candidates who participated in the UTME during its early stages. Subsequent releases may follow after thorough scrutiny to ensure the integrity and credibility of the results. This meticulous approach stems from JAMB’s commitment to addressing concerns related to impersonation, biometric discrepancies, and other forms of malpractice that could compromise the integrity of the examination outcomes.
The 2024 UTME, which commenced on April 19th, 2024, is set to conclude on April 29th, 2024, after a week-long exercise involving over 1.9 million candidates across more than 700 Computer-Based Test (CBT) centers nationwide. JAMB’s decision to delay the release of results reflects a departure from its previous practice of immediate post-examination release, as the board now prioritizes thorough scrutiny to forestall contentious issues that may arise.
This strategic delay underscores JAMB’s commitment to upholding standards and ensuring fairness in the examination process. As the nation awaits the release of results, candidates and stakeholders can anticipate a comprehensive and transparent evaluation process aimed at maintaining the integrity of the UTME and safeguarding the interests of all participants.
