JAMB POSTONES UTME EXAMS AGAIN
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has postpone the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) scheduled for June 11, 2011 to June 18, 2011.
JAMB Registrar and Chief Executive, Professor Dibu Ojerinde, announced the shift in date in Abuja, on Wednesday, said the new date, as approved by the Federal Government, was to avoid a clash in date with the ongoing National Examinations Council (NECO)'s Senior Secondary School Examinations (SSCE).
A statement by the JAMB Public Relations Officer, Mr Timothy Oyedeji, said that 'the change has become inevitable as a result of the clash in date (i.e. 11th June, 2011) earlier fixed with the ongoing NECO examinations.'
He said: 'For instance, sizeable students who have applied to write UTME would also be sitting for the National Examinations Council's Biology (Practicals) on Friday, 10th June, 2011, and as such, may not be able to travel after their NECO examinations to sit for the scheduled 2011 UTME on Saturday, 11th June, 2011.'
