The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) said on Saturday that there would be no rescheduling of examination for candidates who reported late for the supplementary examination.
TheCable reports that the JAMB registrar, Is-haq Oloyede, said this while reacting to complaints by candidates sitting for the mop-up examination at the board’s computer-based centre (CBT) in Bwari, FCT.
Oloyede, who led some staff members on the supervision of the exercise, said the exam was a supplementary Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) being conducted in 170 centres across the country.

He said 85,000 candidates slated for the mop-up exam were notified through text messages and warned those who came late that the board would not reschedule the exam.
“There is nothing you can do… we placed adverts in newspapers, sent e-mails and text messages and if you did not get it, it means that you were not invited for the exam.
“A bulk Short Message Service (SMS) was equally sent to your telephone numbers that you provided during the registration.
“We will not reschedule the exam for people who came late,” Oloyede said.
