JAMB gives 2016 candidates 48 hours to complete late registration

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has given two days to candidates, who could not upload and complete their registration process, to do so or lose the chance of sitting for the exercise.

The board, in a statement issued in Abuja yesterday by its Head of Media, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, said the board’s official website would be opened to candidates from midnight yesterday till tomorrow’s midnight for them to complete and upload all late registration.

JAMB said the new development would not cover fresh candidates, who were yet to begin the registration process.

The statement said arrangements had been made for the start of the 2016 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations (UTME).

The statement reads: “The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board hereby direct all candidates who have initiated the process of registration for the 2016 UTME, but couldn’t upload and complete their registration process as at Friday February 5, 2016 to do so within 48 hours starting from 12 midnight on Tuesday February 23, 2016 when the website will be opened to 12 midnight on Thursday February 25, 2016.”
