The Head of Public Affairs and Protocol of Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) Dr. Fabian Benjamin has announced the release of the 2022 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination(UTME) in a press statement issued on 14th May 20222. Inline to the statement, to check the 2022 UTME result, all a candidate is required is to send UTMERESULT to 55019 using the same phone number the candidate had used in registration and the result will be replied as a text message to the same phone number, as this is the only avenue for checking this year result as the Board has not uploaded it on its website yet.
“This is the only process of checking the 2022 UTME results for now as the Board has not uploaded it on its website for obvious reasons.
“In addition, candidates are forewarned that they would, as usual, receive all kinds of messages from desperate fraudsters on how to check their results different from the aforementioned one. Hence, the Board urges all candidates to ignore all such messages on how to check their 2022 UTME results as they are all products of deceit aimed at misleading them.
“The Board, in line with its desire to adhere to the ease of doing business protocol of the government, has emplaced this user-friendly and simplified process of checking UTME results.
Furthermore, this simplified process would also serve to preclude the unconscionable exploitation of candidates by shylock business centers and cybercafés, which often take advantage of hapless candidates.
“The 2022 UTME began on Friday, 6th May 2022 and ended on Friday 13th May 2022.”
