Some of the candidates who expressed disappointment over the postponement, call on JAMB to ensure that any technical issue is resolved before the main JAMB examination to avoid issues like this and the frustration that comes with it.

One of the candidates, Miss Sarah Adeniyi, who spoke to newsmen said she arrived at the centre as early as 6.30 a.m. and as at 1.30 p.m., she had not been allowed into the premises.

“I am so tired and hungry. I rushed down here thinking they would keep to time. Look at us under the sun since morning.

“I just feel like forgetting about this whole mock examination,” she said.

We believe that JAMB has learnt its lessons from what happened today and we hope that this will help them organize a better mock examination and also a better exam during the actual UTME.
