250,000 yet to sit UTME – JAMB Registrar 

This was revealed by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board Registrar Professor Is’haq Oloyede.

Speaking on Friday evening after monitoring some of the centres in Lagos, including Ogba, Agidingbi, University of Lagos, Mr Oloyede, explained that this was due to the rescheduling of the exam for some candidates.He said as such, 1.350 million had sat the UTME out of the registered 1.6 million candidates.

Professor Oloyede, however, said he was impressed by the performance of the Computer Based Centres and the conduct of the candidates.

“I am impressed by the performance of the centres and the conduct of the students.

I’m happy that parents are largely kept out of the process. By now, we should have covered 1.5 million out of the registered candidates but because of the rescheduled candidates, we have about 250,000 candidates left. That is why we have about 370 centres that are still running because they have not finished the rescheduled candidates,” he said.

He said, “The level of examination malpractice has gone down drastically. I will encourage candidates to know that there is no other way to success than working hard.

Throughout the country, the level of examination malpractice, impersonation, is very minimal, in fact below the international standard for examination malpractice, particularly from Lagos. And now we have better devices to detect any form exam malpractice.

If you look at the situation in the past, prior to this year, it’s possible for examinations to be disrupted. And examination that was scheduled for 8 am could start 8 pm.

The difference now is one hour, after one and half hours, you cannot start that same exam.

That’s why this year we have been canceling so many exams.

Yes we have to cancel them because they are no longer valid, because the subjects scheduled for that session have been taken elsewhere.

“No candidate can write the exam after the time has passed. Nobody can help such candidate.”
