The general public has been warned to disregard reports that the sale of 2017 UTME forms by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has commenced.
A statement issued in Lagos on Sunday, December 4, 2016, by JAMB’s Head of Media and Information, Mr Fabian Benjamin, said there was no iota of truth in the reports and urged the public to ignore it.
Registrar of the examination body, Prof Ishaq Oloyede, was quoted in the statement to have said, “The public is hereby notified that JAMB has not commenced the sales of its application documents as advertised by some unknown and desperate persons.
“They are to disregard any website or individuals claiming to be in possession of these documents and offering same for sales.
“We are putting finishing touches to innovation and changes to ease the challenges associated with the procedure of application for the 2017 all Computer-Based Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.
“We are looking forward to announcing the commencement of the sales of these documents very soon.”
He was further quoted to have said, “We must all be interested in what happens in JAMB, as it is too important to be ignored.
“Help us to watch over where our eyes cannot get to, hear where our ears fail and be our police where our presence is insufficient.”
