BREAKING: JAMB Registrar In Tears, Apologizes For 2025 UTME Results, To Reschedule Exam For 379997 Candidates
The Genius Media Nigeria reports that The Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, on Wednesday, broke into tears as he apologised for the errors in the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.
“I apologise for the trauma caused the candidates,” Oloyede said tearfully during a press conference in Abuja.
“What should have been a moment of joy has changed due to one or two errors,” Oloyede said.
Recall that Oloyede at the start of the press briefing acknowledged “one or two errors” made during the 2025 UTME
According to him, “we set all machineries in order, regardless, there were still errors.”
This follows JAMB admission that it had received an unusually high number of complaints regarding discrepancies in candidates’ scores.
This came after reports of poor performances in the recently concluded UTME.
The board had promised that if any glitches are identified, appropriate remedial measures will be implemented promptly.
The 2025 UTME results saw 78 per cent of candidates score less than 200 of the 400 maximum obtainable points.
