The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has announced plans to accredit a total of One Thousand and Thirty-Nine Computer-Based Test centres nationwide for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.
The JAMB Registrar, Prof. Is’haq Oloyede, disclosed this on Wednesday in Ilorin during an accreditation tour of CBT centres.
Oloyede said 52 examination teams had been deployed across the country to re-accredit centres or disqualify those that failed to meet the board’s standards.
He explained that the annual accreditation exercise was necessary to ensure compliance with laid-down requirements, stressing that past approval did not guarantee continued eligibility.
The registrar described the exercise as “so far so good,” adding that only a few previously implicated centres had attempted to resurface.
Oloyede said JAMB had strengthened its collaboration with the Corporate Affairs Commission to prevent operators of blacklisted centres from re-entering the system.
He added that staff and proctors previously implicated in malpractice had also been barred from participating in future examinations.
