The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has apologised for failing to release the latest batch of Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) results as scheduled, ‎

‎The board had earlier indicated that results for candidates who sat the exam on Friday, the 17th of April, 2026, would be released on Saturday.

‎However, the delay triggered frustration among candidates awaiting their scores.‎

‎In a statement issued on Sunday, JAMB’s spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin, noted that the setback was due to the temporary absence of the board’s chief executive, who was engaged in official duties.

‎He assured candidates that the situation had been fixed and that the results would be released before the end of the day.
