JAMB Releases CBT-Based UTME Results

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), on Monday, announced the release of the Saturday’s Computer Based Test (CBT) examinations. The Board’s Deputy Director, Outstation, Mr Nobel Onukwue, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos that the result was released on-net on Monday. He advised candidates who wrote the examination on Saturday to check their results on-line. NAN reported that the CBT started on May 17, and would end on May 31. Onukwue said that the second day of the CBT was better because there was no issue of candidates logged out mistakenly, server going off or power outage. Mr Buhari Aliyu, JAMB Biometric Operator, said 332 candidates were screened for the first session and 342 for the second session, as against the 350 expected candidates. Aliyu said any candidate that came late would be allowed to sit for the examination, but would be logged out the moment the time was up. NAN reported that the second session of CBT verification at the Digital Bridge Institute started at about 11.50 a.m. and ended at 1.20 p.m.
