The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has revealed that it has raked in a total of of N1.3 billion between January 18 and 24, 2019 as revenue from the ongoing registration for the 2019 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) and other sources including sale and use of its electronic facilities.



According to the examination body, during the week under review, JAMB made N42,457,657 from the use of its electronic facilities; N1,212,800,000 from UTME registration, N13,378,604 as service charges by the CBT centres and N52,657,00 from other sources.

This information was made available by JAMB in Volume 1, Number 4 of its JAMB Bulletin- a weekly publication of the office of its Registrar, Ishaq Oloyede.

The Board also disclosed that it has suspended nine out of the over 700 Computer-Based Test centres taking part in the ongoing registration exercise due to alleged engagement in illegal activities; majorly charging candidates more than necessary and engaging in unauthorised use of registration SIM in a manner that is inimical to candidates’ interest.

It was gathered that the affected centres include the University of Benin ICT Computer Based Test (CBT) and DA Civic Centre, both in Benin City, Edo State; Mardakem Company Ltd., Oron, Akwa Ibom State; Bintels Global Services LTD, Aguleri, and Noble & Shuaib ICT Ltd, Alor, Anambra State, among others.

Other centres suspended are in Plateau, Oyo, Benue and Ondo States including Global ICT Connect Ltd at the Benue State University, Makurdi; Medes ICT Centre, Idepe, Okitipupa, Ondo State; Divine Success All CBT Centre, Iseyin, Oyo State and Riyom ICT Centre, Plateau State.



JAMB also added that it is currently monitoring closely activities at about 10 centres in Lagos and Plateau states, saying its management would meet on January 28, to take appropriate action on these centres.

Of course we know the money was looted and shared with friends.

Party of Friends Enricher

Next Level. JAMB was a looting machine under PDP.

Just seeing figures but not adding anything to the lives of the man on the streets of Nigeria.... Please what is this government using all these monies including the trillions they have gotten through EFCC for.... Even the TraderMoni and MarketMoni na ony strong APC members dey see am collect.... Rubbish Country.... I wish I am from Mali...

And 1 billion naira inside will not still get the admission.....
If you know yhu know

let's not forget that during the pdp era JAMB only remitted 50m in a whole year.


SHOCKING: Before Oloyede, JAMB remitted N50 million to Nigerian govt in seven years


and some people want to vote back pdp and their scum

Am sure most of our nairaland feminists donated heavily to this money.

Faithfull18 alone and her siblings writing jamb for the umpteenth time contributed more than 1/10

See Pastor praying for another member.
May your life and the life of EVERYONE around you be run the way PDP ran this country for 16 years.
We know you can never say Amen to that prayer tho, so don't bother.

And for your APC prayer for the person you quoted, we say Amen on his behalf!
Hypocrite!
