JAMB explains delay in releasing UTME 2022 results

The Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, on Tuesday said once the board’s “internal appraisal” is completed, the results of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) 2022 done so far will be released.

Oloyede, JAMB said “will not release the results until we have all the reports of examination malpractices”.

“We have no reason not to release the results but we are also doing some internal appraisal,” Oloyede said during a meeting with the management of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in Abuja.

“One, we don’t want this situation where you release results and you start to withdraw some; so we have asked people to submit reports, particularly of malpractices.

“And for the first day after the result was ready, we now scrutinized and we saw that about 40 per cent of the report were not in.

“So, why release 60 per cent and create confusion? We have insisted that this year, we will not release the results until we have all the reports of examination malpractices.”
