2025 UTME: JAMB to Release Resit UTME Results Amidst Performance Concerns.
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced the impending release of the results for the 379,000 candidates who participated in the rescheduled Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). This resit examination, conducted between Friday and Monday, followed widespread reports of technical and logistical challenges during the initial UTME administration, primarily impacting candidates in Lagos and the South-East.
JAMB acknowledged systemic lapses necessitating the resit, and Registrar Prof. Ishaq Oloyede publicly accepted responsibility for the disruptions. The release of these results comes amidst broader concerns regarding overall UTME performance, with a significant proportion of the 1.95 million candidates scoring below 200 out of 400. The Board’s spokesman, Fabian Benjamin, confirmed the results will be accessible on Wednesday. The public awaits these results with keen interest, anticipating insights into whether the resit effectively addressed the initial issues and improved candidate outcomes.
