The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has raised serious concerns over the small number of candidates who have printed their examination notification slips required for sitting the upcoming examination.
In a statement released yesterday, JAMB expressed regret, stating that “As of this morning (Friday), only 12,442 out of the 98,232 scheduled candidates have printed their slips, reflecting a mere 12.6 per cent participation rate.”
Consequently, the board urged all candidates who missed their earlier examinations to reprint their slips, stressing the importance of not missing this chance.
“We strongly encourage all candidates, particularly those who missed the main examination, to print their notification slips promptly.
“This is a rare opportunity for them to participate in this year’s examination,” it appealed in the statement issued by its spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin.
The statement also added, “We urge all candidates who missed their previous examinations to reprint their slips to ensure they do not miss this opportunity.”
JAMB further noted, “The Board is actively monitoring the printing process to determine the number of candidates who will be present for the examination.”
It continued, “Meanwhile, we have deployed both human and material resources to facilitate this exercise, ensuring that all registered candidates have the opportunity to sit the examination.”
The board also warned, “Please note that failure to print the examination notification slip will result in forfeiture of the opportunity to take the examination.”
It concluded by urging, “Once again, we urge all candidates to proceed immediately to print their slips for the examination scheduled for tomorrow, Saturday, 28th June, 2025.”
