Jamb Registrar:Over 1.1 Million Candiates Who Wrote 2018 Utme Scored Above 100


Prof. Is-haq Oloyede, Registrar, JAMB, disclosed this when
members of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against
Corruption (PACAC) led by its Chairman, Prof. Itse Sagay, visited
the board’s headquarters in Abuja.
The Registrar said out of 1,840,225 candidates who wrote the
examination, only 800,000 had the five credits ordinary level (O’
level) minimum requirements.



He further revealed that “There are 767 tertiary higher institutions
in Nigeria and about 560,168 candidates have been admitted.
About 20 per cent of the candidates are in SS2, they only took
JAMB for trials.”
The JAMB registrar said the collusion of parents in examination
malpractices remained a major challenge for the Board. According
to him, most parents have gone haywire in their desire to ensure
their children pass the examination at all cost. He expressed his
displeasure on how parents paid huge amount of money into
fraudulent account in order to pave way for their wards.
