Reasons why some Candidates have not seen their JAMB results

The JAMB registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede
has revealed the reason there is delay
in releasing some JAMB results. He
made this known while briefing
newsmen in Lagos.


He said that normally the results ought
to be available immediately after the
exam since it is CBT. However, for
some reasons, JAMB cannot released
the results immediately.

According to him, one of the reasons is
to go through the CCTV Cameras to see
if there are cases of malpractice.

So candidates who get the response
“You do not have result yet” need to
check back as their results may be
under check for exam malpractice. If
you are not found guilty of involving in
any form of exam malpractice, then your
result will surely be released. You only
need to exercise patience.

The fact that the response you got says,
“You do not have a result Yet”, simply
means that your result is not available
(not uploaded) at the moment but will
likely be be available later provided you
do not have any issue. So be calm.


Now some candidates also complained
that when they tried checking their
results, the response they got was, “you
did not register for this exam.” For such
candidates, if you are sure you thumb
printed before and after the exam,
Captured all your fingers correctly
during your UTME registration and
registered with an accredited JAMB
CBT centre, then it could be just a
system error which will be corrected.


But if you did not do any of these, it
could be the reason you got that
response.

It is also possible you are using a
wrong email address or JAMB
Registration number and that’s the
reason you got that response.

For those candidates complaining that
they only see half result or incomplete
result when they check, the reason
could be because you are using Opera
mini browser to check it. Try using a
computer system to view it. if you must
use a phone or a tablet, make use of
another browser like chrome or UC
browser.

Prof. Oloyede also stated that some
candidates have been found guilty of
impersonation. This means that such
candidates will not get their results.
He also stated that another reason
JAMB does not release the result
immediately is to ensure that those who
did not pass do not cause trouble at the
various CBT centres.


He noted that as at May 18th, 2017 out of the 1,648,429 million candidates writing the ongoing UTME, 1,048,914 results have been released and uploaded and about 30,046 uploaded by Midnight May 18th, 2017.


Concerning the performances of
candidates so far in the ongoing UTME,
Oloyede said that from the results so
far, the candidates have not done badly.
