JAMB Latest News Update for Today, Wednesday 30th April 2025

As the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) concludes today, Wednesday, April 30th, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released fresh updates regarding the conduct of the examination and the awaited release of results.

2025 UTME Concludes Nationwide

The 2025 UTME, which officially began on Thursday, April 24, ends today with over 2 million candidates sitting for the exam across more than 700 Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres nationwide.

According to JAMB, the entire examination process has been largely successful, with minimal disruptions reported.

Results Await Post-Examination Analysis

JAMB has once again urged candidates to be patient, stating that the release of UTME results will only take place after all post-examination checks and analyses are completed.

This includes:

• Technical verification of data from CBT centres.
• Screening for malpractice or impersonation cases.
• Ensuring accurate and credible results are released to the public.

Candidates are advised to ignore fake news about result release dates and instead monitor only JAMB’s official website and verified social media handles for updates.

Smooth Conduct Reported in Many Centres

Reports from across the country show that the exam was conducted smoothly in most centres.

• Verification and accreditation started promptly from 6:30 AM.
• Exams commenced at 8:00 AM as scheduled.
• Candidates and officials commended the efficiency and organization of the exercise in compliant centres.

JAMB Delists Underperforming Centres

To further uphold exam integrity, JAMB has delisted five CBT centres that failed to meet technical and operational standards during the 2025 UTME.

These centres were found to:

• Have technical faults that disrupted exams.
• Fail in candidate verification and service delivery.
• Fall short of the Board’s strict standards for examination conduct.

This action shows JAMB’s ongoing commitment to fair and reliable assessments.

Final Words

With the 2025 UTME now concluded:

• Candidates are reminded to stay calm and await their results, which will be released after proper verification.
• The Board is working to ensure that no candidate is unfairly affected by errors or malpractice.
• All communications regarding results, rescheduling, or next steps will be done through official JAMB platforms.

As we await the next phase, including result checking and admission processes, candidates are encouraged to remain informed, focused, and hopeful.
