JAMB will meet on Thursday with vice-chancellors and education leaders to review the 2025 UTME after widespread complaints about result discrepancies and technical issues sparked protests among candidates and parents.
- Over 75% of UTME candidates scored below 200, triggering doubts about the exam’s fairness and accuracy.
- JAMB says complaints from specific states prompted early review involving school leaders, tech experts, and regulators.
- Education Minister links poor performance to improved anti-malpractice efforts, while critics demand transparency on grading methods.
Candidates like @Pennyfabz, who scored 156 after previously scoring 285, feel robbed by what they claim were technical faults. Parents are demanding clarity, alleging incomplete questions and scoring irregularities. “This can’t be swept under the rug,” one concerned parent said.
As JAMB convenes experts to probe the UTME process, will the review restore public trust in Nigeria’s education system? Stakeholders await not just answers but solutions to long-standing credibility concerns.
