The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has distanced itself from circulating messages urging candidates to reprint their examination slips for another reset examination.
According to the board, misleading messages sent via a “spoofed version” of its 66019 short code urged candidates who had already sat for the resit and received their Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME, results to reprint their slips.
A statement by the board’s Public Communication Advisor, Fabian Benjamin, categorically stated that the messages are not from JAMB.
Fabian explained that “there are currently no scheduled examinations, and candidates who have successfully completed the resit examination and received their results need not be concerned. Such messages are fraudulent and intended to sow confusion.”
“The only examination that JAMB is planning to conduct, which has yet to be scheduled, is the foreign examination held in nine countries across Europe, the Middle East, and certain African nations.
“Additionally, there will be a mop-up examination for candidates who missed the main and resit examinations and have been granted waivers only for 2025 to participate in the usual mop-up for those who experienced biometric failures.
“We urge the public to disregard these deceptive messages. Those qualified for the mop-up examination, as specified, will be duly notified once preparations are finalised.”
