imposed on JAMB examination candidates.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\" style=\"color: #222222;font-family: -apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif, 'Apple

the examination.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\" style=\"color: #222222;font-family: -apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif, 'Apple Color Emoji', 'Segoe UI

such, would have to travel long distances.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\" style=\"color: #222222;font-family: -apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif, 'Apple

examination or carry out a JAMB related service offered only in a CBT Centre.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\" style=\"color: #222222;font-family: -apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI',
