BREAKING: JAMB Bans UTME Registration Centres From Nocturnal Practices

JAMB has banned UTME Registration Centres from nocturnal practices.

BrandNewsDay Nigeria reports that the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has issued a final warning to certain registration centres found conducting nocturnal, nighttime, registration of candidates for the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) citing concerns over candidate safety and security.

In a statement signed by JAMB’s Public Communication Advisor, Dr Fabian Benjamin, the Board acknowledged the need to accommodate large numbers of candidates but insisted that such services must not compromise security.

“While JAMB appreciates the enthusiasm of these centres to accommodate as many candidates as possible, this should never come at the cost of the candidates’ personal safety and security.” the statement read.
