The Joint Admissions and Matriculation
Board (JAMB) on Monday said that it would
not extend the period of registration of
candidates for its 2017 all Computer Based
Test (CBT) UTME.

The board’s Registrar, Prof. Is-haq Oloyede
told newsmen on the sideline of a
stakeholders’ meeting attended by owners
of CBT centres nationwide, organised by
JAMB at the University of Lagos.

According to him, registration of candidates
for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation
Examination will be for a period of one
month – March 20 to April 19, as against
the previous three months period.

He said that the essence of reducing the
period of registration from three months to
one month was to eliminate all ills
associated with prolonged registration of
candidates.

“There will also be mock examination for
prospective candidates, and this
examination will be purely optional.

“Those who register for the mock
examination will sit for it on April 8, but
the UTME proper will commence on May 6
to May 20.

“We have put in place facilities that will
make it easy for candidates to register.

“For instance, as soon as a candidate
creates his profile on his mobile phone,
automatically, we will send our e-syllabus
and e-brochure into his e-mail.
“So, even before going to pay for the mock,
he already has all the materials that he will
need for the registration.

“We are also talking to CBT centre
operators not to extort candidates just as we
are also asking candidates not to pay now
for the mock examination which is purely
optional,’’ the registrar said.
He said that the mock examination had
been made free by JAMB for interested
candidates, adding that the gesture was
part of the board’s corporate social
responsibility.

According to Oloyede, candidates would pay
N700 to owners of centres where they
would be posted at the point of registration
for the mock examination.

“We will not charge fees for the mock
examination because we want to do it as
our own way of giving back to the society.

“But the CBT centres will be allowed to
charge a token of N700 for the mock and it
is at that point that all prospective
candidates for the mock examination are
expected to pay.

“There will also be no cash transaction.

Candidates can use their ATMs or if they
must use cash, they can pay into the banks
to avoid extortion of any kind.

“This is because there are people out there
that want to take advantage of these
candidates’ naivety.

“So it is important for candidates to keep
passwords to their e–emails, ATM cards and
even registration numbers to themselves
and safe, to avoid being exposed to those
who might want to take advantage of them’’
he said.

The registrar added that over 600 public
and private centres had been approved for
the conduct of this year’s UTME
nationwide.

He said that so far, the board was satisfied
with the level of readiness of the centres
for the examination.

He added that the board would not accredit
centres jointly owned by associations,

adding that accreditation was based strictly
on individual operator and those accredited
as owner of CBT centre.

The registrar said that the essence of the
stakeholders’ meeting with owners of
centres was to put finishing touches to the
state of readiness ahead of the examination.

“I started this morning by interacting with
transporters, after which I met with the
state coordinators and later with banks and
now with CBT centre operators.

“The essence is to ensure that everybody
involved in the preparation for registration
of candidates for the examination will have
adequate information and is carried along.

“We are equally distributing materials to
centres all over the country; for instance,
the e-syllabus and e-brochure will be
distributed to every prospective candidate
among other things,’’ he said.

Newsmen report that no fewer than 400 CBT
centre operators nationwide participated in
the meeting
