JAMB fortifies registration process, displays image of officers for candidates

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has provided for the image of the Registration Officer to be displayed at the corner of the screen being used to register any candidate besides their biometric details that had been captured.

The board said this is to further fortify the registration process and ensure that candidates know where and who is registering them for the 2021 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination Board( UTME) and Direct Entry (DE) exercise.

The 2021 UTME/DE which is ongoing, is due to close on 15th May, 2021, said a statement from the board.

“Candidates registering for the 2021 UTME/DE exercise are urged to ensure that the picture shown on the corner of the screen is the same person registering them,” the statement said.

It further said if the picture does not match the face of the Registration Officer, candidates should immediately raise the alarm as such a person is not authorised to register them or they are in a completely unauthorised registration outlet.

The statement said the measure is in addition to several others put in place to guide against manipulation, abuse and exploitation of candidates as well as forestalling examination malpractices.

The Board’s innovations, including this one which comes with some little changes and additions to its processes, are to make the system better and fortified against those who are working non-stop to take advantage of the system.

“It is, therefore, required of candidates who are the major stakeholders in the process, to monitor the process as they are being registered and adhere to extant instructions, rules and regulations. “
