We can reliably inform you that about
10,000 men and officers of the Nigeria
Security and Defence Corps (NSCDC) will be
on invigilation for the JAMB UTME 2013
Examinations coming up on 27th April,
2013.
This piece of information was made known
to news men by the Registrar and Chief
Executive of the Joint Admissions and
Matriculation Board (JAMB), Professor ‘Dibu
Ojerinde.
Dibu Ojerinde, who spoke in Abuja, however,
announced the postponement of the Jamb
Computer-Based Test (CBT) to 18th May,
2013. The CBT Unified Tertiary Matriculation
Examination (UTME) will hold after the
conduct of Paper Pencil Test (PPT), and Dual
Based Test (DBT) on Saturday,
27th April, 2013.
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation
Board (JAMB) board also gave the reason
why the Jamb CBT 2013 examination was
shifted, according to the board, this was
done to avoid clash in examination dates
with the West African Examination Council
(WAEC) and National Examination Council
(NECO).
Before the exam was postponed, the
Computer-Based Test JAMB UTME 2013 was
schedule to hold a week to April 27th as
concluding date for 2013 UTME.
After a brief meeting with the officials from
WAEC and NECO, it became very necessary for
JAMB to hold the CBT in May to allow for
ample seating arrangement for candidates
who might be seating for both
examinations.
