The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced that more than 18,000 candidates are to rewrite the 2021 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) on Friday, August 6, 2021, in some selected locations across the country.
Disclosing this is JAMB Spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin, during a statement on Thursday, titled, ‘Mop-Up UTME Holds Friday, 6th August, 2021…JAMB’.
According to Fabian, the more than 18,000 candidates scheduled for the mop-up UTME on Friday, August 6, 2021, are those who experienced biometric verification challenges and those who genuinely missed the just-concluded Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination as a result of clash with this year’s National Business and Technical Examinations Board examination.
