The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) on Friday announced the release of the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) results, with results of 39,834 candidates being withheld.
Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, the Board’s Registrar, announced this on Friday during the official release of the 2025 UTME results at Board’s headquarters in Bwari.
Over 1.9 million applicants participated in the just-concluded exercise.
Oloyede claimed that the seizure of results was due to alleged examination malpractices, and approximately 80 people are being investigated for exam-related offences, with Anambra State having the most suspects.
JAMB also disclosed that 80 suspects across the country are currently under interrogation for examination fraud, with Anambra State leading the pack with 14 suspects.
He also mentioned that while 467 underage candidates met the prescribed minimum score, 50 were engaged in a cheating scandal.
