This is still part of PMB's change.


[size=2pt]They said we have to mention Fynestboi or snake to move stuff to front page. Just checking if this works.[/size]

seun, lalasticlala, here's one original content for the front page

Remember when JAMB earlier promised to scrap the use of scratch cards? Well, we can now confirm that the board has now officially effected the scrapping of use of scratch cards, and has further redesigned it's portal to cater for the new changes.

The change is really here! All previous scratch cards have now been invalidated. So if you previously had any scratch card, USED or UNUSED, you can no longer use them on the new portal. Even if you would like to re-print your result slip or JAMB admission letter, you will need repay to do that. If you initially saved the document somewhere, good for you. All Myschoolers, who requested this service through us however, are immune to this, as you can always log into your account here and re-print for free.

With the new system in place, candidates will now be required to have internet enabled ATM cards to be able to print their JAMB result slips, Admission letter or use any e-facility. Parents can also help their children make payments, BUT if you have more than one Child, you will need to choose which of them you would like to purchase a service for, as 1 account can only process services for 1 JAMB registration number. This simply means if you purchase JAMB result slip for JAMB registration number 12345678AB, you can purchase JAMB admission letter and other services for only 12345678AB. It is therefore advisable for candidates themselves to create a JAMB account using their emails and phone numbers, right from Registration (From 2017 UTME).

As for scratch card vendors, cafe operators, business centres, the new JAMB system has been designed to limit or totally prevent multiple requests from different JAMB registration numbers. You will therefore have to find alternatives or maybe register as an accredited JAMB centre. Whether or not this restriction will be lifted to allow candidates, who don't have bank account an option, only time will tell.

The portal seems to still be under construction, as we see some facilities are either not yet active or contain certain errors.

Some of the systems currently described above may change as the 2017 UTME registration draws closer, but until then, JAMB no longer uses scratch cards. Period!

Like this post if you just skipped all the facebook comments to read comments from Nairalanders...

Another Loss of jobs/income not happy at all

Yes, but the students are happier. I think that's what really matters.

azeecoboy:
I am not understanding this well oo..
Can someone clarify the part of "students will start to generate PIN code for themsleves either from a computer or phone"?
....

I believe when the system has been put in place in 2017 UTME, a full procedure on how to go about it will be given.

lalasticlala and Seun, I feel this is a national issue that Nigerian Students should be aware of. Do well to move to FP. Cheers.

Report has it that the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB), will soon stop the use of scratch cards for registration and checking of results.

This was disclosed JAMB Registrar Prof. Ishaq Oloyode on Tuesday at the National Executive Council meeting of the Non-Academic Staff Union (NASU) in Abuja.

According to him this will likely become effective from 2017.

He added that once this becomes effective, students would generate a PIN number for themselves from their phone or computers before registering for examinations.

He frowned at situations whereby banks and vendors hoard the cards, only to sell them at a higher price.

He equally charged NASU members to involve in the ownership of Computer-Based Testing Centres, saying those who own the centres are businessmen merely exploiting students.

How many of them does he drive at once?

How many dresses do you wear at once? So why have many? My dear, calm down and stop the envy. It's his money.

The Bottom Line: Until power is stable in Nigeria, don't expect quality hosting services.

And all those saying dangote should just buy Nigeria, why won't he? He's a business man that see an opportunity. What's happened to all wealthy men in this country. Them dey chop their money for mouth...

Thanks a lot @op, as a masscomm student my English needs to be near perfect and with this, I've learnt new stuffs and I'll keep my spoken English in check

Thank you; I appreciate

I expected you to make a correction to "Stuff".

I hear people say "All my stuffs...". Is the word "stuff" not like "staff"? In that it has no plural form?

dermmy:
6K megawats by Dec 2016 and 30k megawatts by 2030

This is very true! You can check student's comment testimonies and full procedures for confirmation at http://myschool.com.ng/school/news/46435/jamb-enables-portal-to-check-institution-you-have-been-posted-for-2016-admission.html

Yes, this is true. They now have the ultimate policy, which seems like a revert to "Before Post-UTME" era. You can download the full document at Myschool Website.

Same fly over that has take Imo State about 6 years to complete (they've still not completed it tho) since Okorocha took office.

It depends on the reason why you're being followed. Now imagine they are assassins and the last right turn is a close.... See Gobe...

That bucket in the background tho...

At least you now have new tires and rims...

Had to comment again on this post... didn't know which one would make frontpage....

At least you now have new tires and rims...

Go for both.... If you eventually start with .com and you start getting popular, one idiot would just go and copy you by taking .com.ng. Reserve as many as you can, if possible, .ng

1. I can always buy a new battery.
2. I don't always move around.
3. I don't do heavy graphic work.
4. I will upgrade to windows 10

Thanks , I'm still sticking to my 6 year old laptop...

Oga Heliflofter Builder, why not start small by making drones (without remote control) before doing this big for nothing? At least, that one can fly.

LESSON: The seat belt is not meant for those in front only. If you are at the back seats, you too should fasten your seat belt. Such accidents with occupants behind is usually very violent.

RIP Sir.

Goodluck to the rest of us.

JAMBite fought and protested for this. I believe they've won. That's democracy for you! But don't think of abusing such privilege next time and do well to register on time. You guys may not be this lucky next time.
