This payment is part of the board\u2019s commitment to weekly payments of UTME registration charges collected as part of the total fee for UTME to CBT centres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">JAMB typically registers an average of 1.5 million candidates annually, with last year\u2019s figure exceeding 1.9 million. However, only 24% of the candidates scored 200 or above out of the 400 obtainable scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The board has also taken steps to address challenges in the registration process. Two CBT centres, the Federal College of Education (Technical) Potiskum, Yobe State, and a CBT Centre in Otukpo, Benue State, were suspended for breaching registration procedures. Additionally, JAMB warned all CBT centres against late-night registration, with 10 centres found to be registering candidates at night. Any centre found violating the regulations will face strict sanctions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/giftconsult.com.ng\/category\/jamb\">https:\/\/giftconsult.com.ng\/category\/jamb<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Joint Admissions and Matriculations Board (JAMB) has announced that 201,867 candidates successfully registered for the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations (UTME) within the first week of registration.
