The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) on Wednesday denied the report that its has fixed another examination for any category of candidates on July 3.
The board’s Head of Media and Protocol, Dr Fabian Benjamin, disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos.
According to the board’s spokesperson, the report “is not correct’’, noting that JAMB has at no point thereafter, announced any form of another examination for any category of candidates.
Benjamin noted that almost all results of candidates, who sat for the 2021 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), have since been released.
He said, “No examination has been fixed for any category of candidates.
“The attention of the board was drawn to a Twitter message credited to it that it had fixed another examination for candidates who scored lower than 170 in its examination and should come for a re-sit on July 3.’’
