JAMB releases over 4000 withheld UTME results

JAMB candidates

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board on Friday released 4,536 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination results, which were withheld for allegations of multiple identities of candidates and other infractions.

JAMB said the release of 4,536 out of a total 4,760 withheld results followed the decision of a committee set up to examine the multiple facial identities.

The board noted that the facial match recognition was carried out by its specialised software and Information Technology experts.

Over 1.8million candidates had sat for the examination between April 11 and April 18, with the release of over 1,792,000 results on May 11.

But on Friday, the board said it had cleared 4,536 withheld results of infractions.
