JAMB DENIES SAYING IT WILL RELEASE RESULTS ON MONDAY

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has hinted that the results of the just concluded Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) may be released this week.

The board’s spokesman, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, in a chat with The Guardian yesterday, explained that screening of the results is still on going and should be completed during the week.

“If by God’s grace we finish the screening next week, then any moment from that, we can release the result.”He said: “I granted interview to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) and I told them we will finish what we are doing, and if we finish anytime from tomorrow (Monday) the result will be released. I didn’t say we are releasing results on Monday. I said we will finish screening next week, and will release results any moment from that time.”
