We will work out modalities to accommodate all these common errors.<\/p>\n<p>\u201d That is to say that, whether one puts space or not, hyphen or commas, the message should be able to deliver.<\/p>\n<p>\u201d We have asked the service providers to go back and adjust their systems so that such errors are accommodated and we will also go back to the drawing board and incorporate these errors into our systems.<\/p>\n<p>\u201d This should take five days starting from today. We believe that after Friday, April 30, those who make such common errors should be able to generate a profile code,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Oloyede also said that candidates who had registered for UTME in the previous year could also generate a code with the same telephone number, following the 2021 process of generating a profile code.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that the only difference between the previous registration process and that of this year was the inclusion of NIN.<\/p>\n<p>The same code, he stated, might be sent to the candidate but would have undergone an upgrade from the board\u2019s system.<\/p>\n<p>He also noted that the board was connecting effectively with the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) on the registration process and have had not much to worry about.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Joint Admissions and Matriculations Board (JAMB) says the board will introduce the use of USSD code as an option to the SMS process of generating a profile code for registration.
