JAMB REGISTERS OVER 141,018 CANDIDATES IN ONE WEEK FOR 2024 UTME EXAMINATION

As registration of candidates for the 2024 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) and Direct Entry (DE) entered the first week last Friday, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) said it has registered a total of 141,018 candidates.

To this end, the Board’s financial inflow for the first week as published in its weekly bulletin revealed that it recorded N3.030 billion.

The financial inflow represents accruals from facilities sales, Professional Registration Centres (PRC) service charges and deposits for 2024 registration e-pins.

Meanwhile, a breakdown of payments to 564 Computer Based Test (CBT) Centres comprising 519 Non-JAMB CBT Centres and 45 JAMB Registration Centres was N98,712.600 at N700 per candidate.

In another development, the Board has warned parents and guardians to stay away from its various registration centres as well as avoid any act capable of jeopardising the registration exercise.

According to JAMB, the warning came on the heels of a woman, a graduate of Business Administration from Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, who was caught at one of the Board’s Professional Registration Centre(PRC), while
attempting to procure a registration e-PIN for her brother, an act that ran contrary to the series of advisories on interference by third parties in matters relating to candidates with the Board
