The Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, has apologised while explaining the glitches in the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) results. 

Speaking during a press briefing on complaints about the 2025 UTME on May 14, 2025, Oloyede acknowledged technical errors that affected some candidates’ results, particularly in Lagos and Owerri zones.

“We are human, and despite our best efforts, errors occurred,” Oloyede stated, stressing that the issues were due to failures in server updates at 157 examination centres. These issues impacted 206,610 candidates in Lagos and 173,387 candidates in the Owerri zone.

The JAMB Registrar outlined the extensive quality assurance processes the Board follows, including collaboration with various technical experts and institutions. However, he admitted that these errors were not detected before the results were released. 

“We did everything we could to ensure a smooth process, but an error happened. Man proposes, but God disposes,” Oloyede remarked.

To address the issue, affected candidates will be contacted to retake their exams starting on May 16, 2025. The Board has coordinated with the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) to avoid any timetable conflicts.
