The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) on Tuesday rescheduled registration for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) 2022 and Direct Entry (DE) for February 19. The registration will now end on Saturday March 26.
The board, in a statement obtained by POLITICS NIGERIA, claimed that the postponement for the exercise which was initially scheduled to commence on February 12 was due to “fine-tuning”.
The statement by the board’s spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin, partly reads, “The process, which will be concluded within the one-week extension period, is also aimed at accommodating feedback from candidates and other stakeholders alike.”
“Further to the above, the new and improved procedures for the 2022 UTME Registration would be made available on the Board’s website, its weekly bulletin as well as other media outlets on Monday, 14th February, 2022.
“The candidates, are by this notice, urged to follow keenly the procedures for registration as would be announced by the Board,” the statement added.
