Legit.ng gathers that it's likely that the initial results to be released on Monday are for candidates who took the exam in the first few days, with others following after further scrutiny.
JAMB explained the delay, stating the need for careful examination to ensure the credibility of the results, addressing concerns such as impersonation and malpractices like mixed biometrics.
The 2024 UTME, which began on April 19 and ends on April 29, saw over 1.9 million candidates at more than 700 Computer-Based Test (CBT) centers nationwide.
In the past, JAMB released results shortly after the exam, but recent years have shown the potential for issues. Thus, the board opted for thorough scrutiny before release, withholding results where necessary.
