JAMB has stated that a meeting with
officials will need to be conducted, after
which the Cut-Off Marks for 2017 UTME will
be announced.
No date has been announced for when the
meeting will be conducted.
JAMB insists that it has not released the
cut-off mark for the 2017 examination.
NAN reports that the Head, Media and
Information, JAMB, Dr. Fabian Benjamin,
made the clarification in a statement made
available to the News Agency of Nigeria in
Lagos on Tuesday.
He said that the policy committee meeting
responsible for the determination of cut-off
marks had not met.
According to him, it is in the best interest of
candidates and other critical stakeholders to
jettison cut-off marks for the various
courses that are currently being paraded.
"We want to appeal to all candidates to
jettison such speculations and engage
themselves in more meaningful ventures that
would add value to their future," he said.
Benjamin said results of the just concluded
2017 Unified Tertiary Matriculation
Examination had since been released, with a
few others still being previewed.
"We want to appeal to Nigerians to
understand that such candidates whose
results are being previewed may not
necessarily have participated in any
malpractice.
"But rather, centres where they sat for the
examination had issues during the conduct
of examination.
"These issues were reflected on the CCTV
footage and this suggests why they must be
carefully investigated before releasing such
results," he said.
