The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) says it has withdrawn the results of four candidates who participated at its 2019 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). According to the statement, the candidates are found to have attempted to fraudulently increase their scores at the examination. The statement recalled that the board had, during the release of its 2019 UTME results on May 11, explained that post examination discovery of serious infraction might lead to the withdrawal of any released results. According to the statement, consequent upon this, after due verification, a number of results were released while others were cancelled. “The initially withheld 3,736 results of candidates are now released,” it said.
