• JAMB warns against presenting printed result slips.

• Candidates are advised to use the SMS method.

• Registrar Prof. Ishaq Oloyede reports that 64,624 results out of 1,904,189 are withheld.

EKO HOT BLOG reports that  the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) is cautioning Nigerians to be vigilant against individuals presenting printed result slips, as the results are currently not available in paper format.

Dr. Fabian Benjamin, spokesperson for JAMB, emphasized in a statement on Wednesday the importance of this information, citing instances of individuals circulating printed result slips on social media platforms.

Benjamin clarified that unlike last year, the current results are not accessible on JAMB’s website and are therefore not available for printing.

He said,“The board, once again, wishes to state clearly that the only way to check the 2024 UTME result is to send UTMERESULT to 55019 or 66019, using the same phone used by the candidate in registering for the UTME. Ensure that the SIM is not on any bundle.

“This is different from what obtained last year, hence, the results, at the moment, are not and cannot be found on the board’s website.

“Candidates are urged to follow the method specified above to obtain their results. They need not visit any cybercafe or patronise any third-party entity to check their result.

“The public is also advised to be wary of any candidate parading printed result slip as currently, the result is not on any paper format as being circulated on social media by some individuals.

“A reasonable number of candidates have checked their results as seen on our monitoring dashboard but for the few still struggling, please follow the right channel.”
