The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), has released the results of 28,335 candidates who participated in the supplementary Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), conducted between Friday, 21st and Saturday, 22nd June, 2024.
The supplementary examination was conducted for candidates, who were unable to be biometrically verified during the main 2024 UTME, and were unable to take their examination.
A statement by the Public Communication Advisor, JAMB, Fabian Benjamin, said similarly, the other categories of candidates were those suspected to have been involved in examination malpractices during the main UTME, but were given a second chance to sit the examination.
It said, “The exercise, which recorded a huge success nationwide, was marked by heightened security measures put in place by the Board to preclude any instance of examination infractions. As such, some nefarious characters, who had attempted to impersonate bona fide candidates were apprehended and handed over to law enforcement agencies for further investigation and prosecution,
“Candidates are, therefore, urged in their interest to refrain from engaging in any form of irregularities during their examinations. They are also enjoined to desist from soliciting score upgrades from fraudsters or engaging in the mutilation of their result sheets while trying to generate fake result sheets with higher scores.
“To check their supplementary UTME results, candidates are to send UTMERESULT to either 55019 or 66019 through the same phone number they had used to generate their profile codes at the start of registration.”
