“It’s after all the reports have been collated and considered that the management would take critical decisions as to the necessity or otherwise of a mop-up examination for affected candidates.
“So, after a thorough analysis of the conduct of the 2022 UTME in 10 centres spread across five states of the federation where examination malpractice was established to have taken place, it became necessary to cancel the results of all the candidates who sat the examination in the affected 10 centres.
“The Board took cognisance of the fact that some innocent candidates, unfortunately, sat their examination at these centres. Consequently, all candidates who sat the UTME in the affected centres have been rescheduled for the mop-up UTME.
“It should be noted that candidates who, for whatever reasons, were absent at those centres are not eligible for the mop-up examination. Other categories of candidates rescheduled for the mop-up UTME are; 142 candidates who could not take the UTME due to fingerprint peculiarities; 28 candidates who could not take the UTME due to technical problems in some centres; and 1,799 candidates with BVM failure who were recaptured at the centres.”
The Board, however, affirmed its zero tolerance for examination malpractices and would do all within its powers to combat it. It also reiterated its avowed commitment to the conduct of credible matriculation examinations in all tertiary institutions in the country, while ensuring the sanctity of its examination process towards sustaining the integrity that the society has come to associate with the Board.
LIST OF CANDIDATES ELIGIBLE FOR JAMB MOP-UP EXAM
The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) have canceled the results of all candidates who wrote in ten centers.
In the board’s weekly bulletin made available to CLOCK REPORTERS, it was disclosed that the results were canceled because of an established examination malpractice in the centers.
Because JAMB knows that some candidates might be innocent, the board has scheduled August 6th 2022 as a date for mop exam for candidates who took their UTME in the affected centers.
