The Joint Admissions and Matriculations Board has said that it will commence sale of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination form to candidates on January 10 , 2019 .
This was made known during a meeting between JAMB and Computer Based Test centres at the University of Lagos , on Thursday , where the Registrar of JAMB , Prof . Is - haq Oloyede , also said the registration for the UTME would no longer be done at cybercafés but at accredited CBT centres .
Oloyede stated that limiting of registration of candidates to only approved CBT centres was to end extortion of candidates , mixing up of pupils ’ data , malpractice , as well as for monitoring purposes .
He said , “Cybercafés overcharge pupils and mix up data which makes pupils suffer . They also do services they don ’t have the capacity to do. All these , coupled with the fact that there is no way of tracking them because they were not registered , we have limited registration to CBT centres that can be monitored .
