Oyogist has learned that the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released the results of 14, 620 candidates for the 2021 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination , but withdrew the results earlier issued to 14 candidates on grounds of exam malpractice.
In a statement by JAMB’s Head of Media, Fabian Benjamin, the board said it decided to release the results following considerations of investigators by the board’ management at a meeting on Tuesday, 27, 2021.
The Board, had earlier stated that it would still review the results of the 2021 UTME exercise and any candidate found wanting would have his/her result withheld.
But in a recent statement, it said;
“Out of the withheld results thirteen were discovered to have been involved in examination infractions after they were released and the one earlier withdrawn bringing the total of the results that have been withdrawn to fourteen.”
The affected candidates whose results have been withdrawn include: Gabriel Micheal; Lawson Ruth Joy; Sadiq Mahbub Auwal; Attama Lawrence Ikedichukwu; Tambaya Yahaya; Anowa Anointing and Ogbonna Joseph Dibia.
