The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has said no date has been fixed for the commencement of the sale of the 2022 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) forms.
The board’s Spokesperson, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, said this in a statement released in Abuja, on Thursday.
He said the rumors on commencement of the sale of the 2022 UTME and Direct Entry (DE) was the handiwork of unwholesome elements to mislead the general public.
“Although, the Board has concluded all arrangements to commence the sale of the 2022 UTME/DE application documents in due course but it is yet to fix any date for its commencement,” he said.
“For the avoidance of doubt, any information in circulation purporting to have emanated from the Board to the effect that the sale of the 2022 UTME and DE forms has commenced is not only fraudulent but is a calculated attempt by mischief makers to create unnecessary panic among prospective candidates for their own selfish ends.”
He described the sale of the Board’s application documents in any given year as a well-publicised undertaking in the print media as well as online and electronic platforms.
He said the announcement of a suitable date to commence the sale would be accompanied by well-defined information on the procedures for the purchase of the e-pins, creating a profile, and where to go for biometric capturing, among other essential details.
