JAMB Debunks Rumours Of Marks’ Deductions by AnthonyDgreat: 1:57pm On May 22, 2017
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has denied that marks are being deducted from
candidates of this year’s Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).

In a statement released in Abuja on Friday by JAMB spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin, the body said the rumour was “devilish”.

“The Joint Admissions and
Matriculation Board has urged all
candidates who participated in the 2017 to disregard any information being circulated by mischief makers on the deduction of marks by the board.

“This rumour is false, devilish and
intended to cause disaffection among the candidates.

“The board has not deducted any
marks from any candidate and is not contemplating doing that as it is not a condition for sanction in any of the provisions of the law against malpractice.

“Again, we call on all candidates to be mindful of fraudulent characters who will send misleading informations to create
panic and take advantage of the
situation to defraud candidates,” he said.

The board also advised candidates to disregard rumours, that some people could not check their results because they owe JAMB.

“The board has also noted that some candidates who could not check their results are being told that their results are not out because they are owing JAMB some money.

“This is a lie and candidates are
advised not to pay any money to
anybody as their results are send to their mails and also on our
website:www.jamb.org.ng.

“Candidates are to login with their
registration number or email address to print.

“The board will be concluding the
2017 examination on Saturday, May 20.

“Any candidate with any challenge
should not hesitate to contact the
board or check our website for
information and numbers.”
