The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) on Monday announced that registration for the 2022 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination and the Direct Entry examination will begin on February 12.
The board made this known in its weekly bulletin released by its Head of Media and Protocol, Dr. Fabian Benjamin on Monday.
In the timeline of events attached to the bulletin, the board said: “UTME/ DE registration starts 12th February 2022 and ends 19th March 2022. Mock examination holds on 20th April, 2022. UTME holds from 20th to 30th April 2022.”
In another development, the bulletin revealed that a repentant candidate named Mr. Timipade Kemepade wrote to the Board asking for forgiveness owing to his involvement in examination malpractice when he sat for the exam twenty-one years ago.
In a letter addressed to JAMB titled: “Restitution on my JAMB Result 21 Years Ago” the repentant Nigerian blamed youthful exuberance for his misconduct.
The Board, in its reply to Mr. Kemepade, said the apology and consequent admission of guilt are “rejected in its entirety and are, therefore, not admissible.”
