The Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Professor Ishaq Oloyede, was overcome by emotion on Wednesday while addressing the press when he acknowledged that the board made errors in the released results of some candidates for the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
Prof Oloyede, in an emotionally laden voice, acknowledged that despite their best efforts at ensuring a hitch-free exercise, the errors are further proof of their humanity.
While apologizing and taking responsibility for the errors, the JAMB Registrar said affected candidates would be rescheduled to rewrite the exam.
Oloyede said the mass failure in the 2025 UTME is due to a systemic failure.
