The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has arrested twenty-seven impersonators who attempted to sit for the 2024 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination on behalf of others.
This was contained in a statement issued by the Board’s Spokesperson, Dr. Fabian Benjamin.
Addressing a separate incident at Caleb University, Dr. Benjamin confirmed that the Board was alerted to the unauthorised restrictions placed on candidates wearing hijabs.
He said swift action was taken following the incident.
Dr. Benjamin apologized to the affected candidates and commended the leadership of both the centre and the university for their prompt intervention, which ensured that no candidate suffered undue disadvantage.
The Board said it delisted four Computer-Based Testing (CBT) centres in Abuja.
Candidates who were scheduled to take their examinations at any of the affected centres have been advised to reprint their examination notification slips immediately.
