The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has suspended the use of the National Identification Number for registration for the 2020 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination UTME.
The registrar of JAMB, Ishaq Oloyede,
who stated this while briefing journalists in Abuja today (Saturday) said the move
was to provide more time for candidates to get their national identification
numbers.
He said the suspension was also to
address the technical challenges experienced at some centres.
He asked candidates to disregard the use
of NIN for the 2020 registration and strictly comply with other procedures for
the registration. He however said that JAMB will consider the use of NIMC for
2021 exams.
The board last year said from 2020,
candidates will register for its examinations with their national ID number to
solve the challenges of multiple registration.
