The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has disowned the misleading messages circulating via a spoofed version of its 66019 short code
A statement on Wednesday by its Public Communication Advisor, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, said that these fraudulent messages intended to sow confusion.are not from JAMB.
The statement said the messages instruct candidates, some of whom have already sat for the resit examination and received their results, to reprint their examination slips for a resit examination.
Benjamin added that there are currently no scheduled examinations, and candidates who have successfully completed the resit examination and received their results need not be concerned.
He said, “The only examination that JAMB is planning to conduct, which has yet to be scheduled, is the foreign examination held in nine countries across Europe, the Middle East, and certain African nations.
“Additionally, there will be a mop-up examination for candidates who missed the main and resit examinations and have been granted waivers only for 2025 to participate in the usual mop-up for those who experienced biometric failures”
JAMB urged the public to disregard these deceptive messages as those qualified for the mop-up examination, as specified, will be duly notified once preparations are finalised.
