The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced the release of 279 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) results that were withheld for investigation over suspected cases of examination malpractice.
This was disclosed in a statement by the JAMB spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin, on the agency’s X handle on Thursday.
According to the board, the release follows ongoing investigations into cases of suspected examination malpractice.
“While some results have been outright cancelled where evidence of malpractice was established, others have been released where the Board found no prima facie case against the affected candidates.
“Results from centres where the Board’s live monitoring team observed suspicious activities, or where adverse reports were received, remain withheld pending further investigation. Where sufficient evidence of culpability is established, such results will be cancelled,” it added.
