Olasola Jamiu, a graduate of FUTA, is seeking justice after JAMB flagged his admission as fake, years after he completed his studies. He was admitted in 2018 following UTME exams in 2017 and graduated in 2024.

Despite efforts to resolve the issue—including police investigations and school management inquiries—Jamiu's admission status remains disputed. This has prevented him from participating in the NYSC scheme, as JAMB's system rejects his details.

Jamiu has expressed frustration over the lack of resolution and calls for Nigerian authorities to assist. JAMB officials have stated that institutions are responsible for verifying student admissions, and any discrepancies should be addressed by the universities themselves.

I commend JAMB’s national UTME ranking system. It has improved competitiveness and merit in the admissions process.

I propose open access to anonymized UTME data. This should include registration codes, scores, and national and department ranks. The data should be sortable by university and course.

I propose that universities publish dynamic Post-UTME data by course and department on JAMB’s portal. This should include anonymized registration codes, Post-UTME scores, and course-specific ranks.

I propose a real-time admission ranking system. Course or institution changes should update the rankings instantly. These reforms will boost transparency, fairness, data-driven planning, and reduce fraud.

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released its 2025 list of most sought-after institutions in Nigeria. The announcement came from Registrar Prof. Ishaq Oloyede at the policy meeting in Abuja.

The Federal Government has mandated that students caught engaging in examination malpractice during the UTME be barred from participating in external exams like WAEC, NECO, and NABTEB for three years. This tough stance aims to serve as a deterrent to students and their parents.

Minister of Education, Dr. Tunji Alausa, issued the directive in a letter to JAMB and other exam bodies, citing the ongoing issue of 'miracle centres' and widespread malpractices. Recent investigations during the 2025 UTME revealed over 3,000 candidates and several exam centres involved in fraud, with some results already withdrawn and culprits arrested.

The minister emphasized that any school or CBT centre found guilty of malpractice or acting as a miracle centre would face suspension for a period determined by the exam authorities. The directive aligns with existing laws, ensuring that once a centre is derecognized by one body, others will follow suit to strengthen the crackdown on exam frauds.

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has accused 2025 UTME top scorer Chinedu Okeke of manipulating his identity and altering records to secure multiple admissions. The Board clarified that Okeke, originally from Amuwo-Odofin in Lagos State, used that identity in 2021 to gain admission into Medicine and Surgery at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka.

JAMB stressed that all candidate details are verified using the National Identification Number (NIN) and denied any error on its part. It dismissed claims of a wrong data retrieval from the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), saying evidence shows Okeke himself updated his records before registering for the 2025 exam.

The Board also questioned why a 400-level medical student would suddenly switch his state of origin to Anambra and apply for Mechanical Engineering. Pending verification from the university, JAMB will notify the Medical and Dental Council if the alleged irregularities are confirmed, reaffirming its commitment to transparency and accurate record-keeping.

Responding to social media narratives and expert claims of a system glitch, JAMB insisted it remains unfazed by public pressure. The Board said it will continue partnering with NIMC to protect the integrity of all candidates’ data.

The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) is under investigation following the leak of exam questions during the 2025 WASSCE. Reports indicate that some officials may be involved in circulating questions, especially the English Language paper, days before the exam.

This leak forced WAEC to reprint new questions, leading to late-night exams in several states, including Lagos, Ogun, Taraba, and Osun. Social media videos show students sitting exams in darkness due to power outages, raising concerns about the exam's integrity and the well-being of candidates.

Parents, students, and education stakeholders are calling for the cancellation and rescheduling of the affected papers. They argue that the leak and the stressful conduct of the exams compromise fairness and could result in mass failure. Experts suggest adopting Computer-Based Testing to prevent future malpractice and improve exam security.

Professor Oloyede also addressed criticisms about the rescheduling process, reaffirming JAMB’s commitment to fairness and integrity. He clarified that even those marked absent initially would be eligible for the mop-up. Candidates are advised to stay updated through official channels for the exam date.

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has accused 2025 UTME top scorer Chinedu Okeke of altering his personal records to gain multiple admissions.

According to JAMB, Okeke, a 400-level medical student at UNN from Amuwo-Odofin in Lagos State, tried to switch identity and apply for Mechanical Engineering under an Anambra State quota. The Board dismissed claims of a data retrieval error by NIMC and said National Identification Number verification shows record changes made by Okeke.

JAMB said it will continue to treat Okeke as a legitimate student pending further investigation and may notify the Medical and Dental Council if irregularities are confirmed. The Board reaffirmed its commitment to transparency and announced a partnership with NIMC to safeguard candidate data.

An education expert challenged JAMB’s allegations, attributing the discrepancies to a 2021 NIN migration glitch. He urged a thorough review and a public apology for Okeke, who scored 375 in the 2025 UTME.

JAMB Alleges Top UTME Scorer Manipulated Identity, Altered Records for Multiple Admissions

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has issued a statement to correct false claims about Chinedu Okeke, the 2025 UTME candidate. Contrary to online narratives, records show he is from Amuwo-Odofin LGA in Lagos State and is a fourth-year Medicine and Surgery student at UNN.

JAMB relies solely on the National Identification Number (NIN) for candidate verification. The Board denies ever importing wrong data from the NIMC in 2021. Evidence suggests that Chinedu updated his own details before registering for the 2025 exam, a fact confirmed by his own representatives.

To protect data integrity, JAMB now works directly with the NIMC. The Board rejects emotional appeals and insists on facts. It will notify the Medical and Dental Council if the university contradicts the current records.

JAMB remains committed to fairness and accountability. It will not allow any candidate to exploit loopholes or undermine the admission process.

Many students are encouraged to pay for post-UTME coaching, but is it really necessary? In this post, I share why paying someone to prepare you might be a waste, especially if you already score above 200. Instead, understanding the exam format, knowing what your target school expects, and preparing smartly are the keys to success.

Preparation should be strategic. Find out if your school’s post-UTME relies on past questions or new questions each year. Identify the key textbooks and materials used by the institution to tailor your reading. Also, define your goal—whether it's gaining admission this year or improving your chances. Clear goals will motivate your study plan.

Regular self-evaluation is crucial. If your exam is in more than a month, do weekly assessments. If it's closer, switch to daily reviews. Test yourself on what you can recall and adjust your efforts accordingly. Remember, your focus should always be on securing admission—anything less isn't worth your time and effort.

The Department of State Services (DSS) and the Nigerian Police Force have arrested 20 suspects involved in hacking into the 2025 UTME servers operated by JAMB. The arrests span Lagos, Edo, Anambra, Kano, and Delta states, marking a significant step in combating cybercrimes targeting Nigeria’s education sector.

Investigations suggest that the suspects, part of a larger syndicate of over 100 members, installed malicious software on exam hardware to gain remote access to JAMB’s servers. Their goal was to manipulate exam results and undermine the credibility of the CBT system.

The hackers reportedly used routers near CBT centres to override JAMB’s platforms. Candidates paid between ₦700,000 and ₦2 million to access exam answers illegally. This breach caused discrepancies during the UTME, leading to widespread complaints about mass failures. Some suspects, believed to own private schools, allegedly led the hacking to discredit the CBT system and protect their fraudulent practices.

Security sources confirmed that the DSS has been tracking this cyber network and is committed to prosecuting all involved. The investigation is ongoing, with no evidence yet implicating the JAMB officials supervising the affected centres. The suspects are currently in DSS custody in Abuja. The incident has heightened concerns over the security of digital exams in Nigeria, prompting calls for urgent reforms and stronger cybersecurity measures.

2025 JAMB Overhaul: New Ranking System, Deadlines & Top Scorers Revealed

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has issued a statement addressing online claims in the case of Chinedu Okeke, the top scorer in the 2025 UTME. The Board insists it upholds strict data integrity and institutional accountability.

JAMB clarified that Okeke is originally from Amuwo-Odofin LGA in Lagos State, not Anambra as widely reported. He used his Lagos-based National Identification Number (NIN) in 2021 to gain admission into Medicine and Surgery at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, where he is now a 400-level student.

The Board questions why a near-graduate in Medicine would switch identity and course to Mechanical Engineering in 2025. JAMB denies retrieving incorrect data from NIMC in 2021 and says evidence shows Okeke altered his original records before registering for the latest UTME.

JAMB will continue treating Okeke as a legitimate student pending university verification, but it has alerted the Medical and Dental Council to potential irregularities. The Board reaffirms its commitment to transparency and rule-based operations.

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) announced that over 387,000 UTME candidates across five Nigerian states had their results affected by a technical error during the 2025 exam. In response, JAMB scheduled a re-sit for the affected candidates from May 16 to May 18, 2025.

Educational expert Alex Onyia explained that the issue was caused by human error rather than a system glitch. He criticized the decision to conduct a re-sit within just 48 hours, emphasizing that a proper remarking process would have been more effective. Onyia also analyzed the system architecture, noting discrepancies in how different zones within the same land cluster were impacted, raising questions about the fairness of the process.
