The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has announced that the second batch of results for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME, will be released before midnight on Saturday.
JAMB’s Public Communication Adviser, Fabian Benjamin, disclosed this in a post on his official X handle, assuring candidates who sat for the examination on Friday, April 17, that their results would be available later in the day.
“The results of the UTME conducted on Friday, 17 April 2026, will be released before midnight today,” Benjamin stated.
He added that an official notice would be issued immediately after the results are released, with updates also to be shared on his social media page.
The latest release follows JAMB’s earlier publication of results for candidates who wrote the examination on Thursday, when 632,788 candidates were able to access their scores.
The 2026 UTME, which began nationwide on Thursday, is expected to involve more than two million candidates across accredited computer-based test centres nationwide.
