2019 UTME: JAMB Suspends CBT Centres of UNIBEN, Others
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has suspended the Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres of the University of Benin (UNIBEN) and some other institutions for alleged irregularities.
According to a statement issued by JAMB on Monday, the suspension was made after a thorough investigation into the conduct of the 2019 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) at the affected centres.
The statement listed the affected institutions as:
- University of Benin (UNIBEN)
- University of Lagos (UNILAG)
- University of Ibadan (UI)
- Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU)
- University of Ilorin (UNILORIN)
JAMB said the suspension was necessary to ensure the integrity of the examination process and to prevent any further malpractices.
The statement read in part: "The Board has suspended the CBT centres of the affected institutions with immediate effect. This is to prevent any further compromise of the examination process and to ensure that the integrity of the examination is maintained."
JAMB also warned that any institution or individual found to be involved in examination malpractices would be severely sanctioned.
The suspension of the CBT centres is a major blow to the affected institutions, as it means that they will not be able to conduct the UTME examination for their students.
It is not clear at this time how the suspension will affect the students who were scheduled to take the examination at the affected centres.
